August Derby

Another awesome tournament for Lake St. Clair muskie fishermen. The fish were biting and BIG fish were caught. A 41.9 pound muskie was caught Saturday evening. This is the largest fish ever to be weighed in by the MOMC. Goes to show you there are some big ones out there. There was a fish a little over 33 pounds and another a little over 32 pounds entered as well. The muskie fishing is really heating up and October is still to come.
My boat caught 12 and loss 3 on Saturday and Sunday we boated 9 and lost 3. We had one fish on Saturday that was 50 plus inches and a little over 30 pounds. No large fish on Sunday. The wind was blowing pretty good Sunday morning and the fish were snapping, as soon as the wind died down, the fish stopped biting. I like a good chop for fishing muskies, it seems to get there appetite going. The hot colors for us were the dark frogs and the black perch. Bucktails got a few too.
I will be out Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. Look for the pictures coming soon.
Good luck to ya all and see ya out there.
