WOW!! What a MM39.

We set some records at MM39 this past weekend. Some of us pre-fished on Fri. June 1st and Glen Melius got a 43" fish. I caught a few nice Smallies. Gary Borkowski caught a nice 21" Smallie.

Saturday started out a little slow but some fish were caught. At noon there were about 4 fish on the board. Corey Earl caught the 1st fish of the day at 5:30 am and Gordie Shaw followed with one at 5:50am. Gary Borkowski and Justin Mundt also caught fish.

Had a great lunch at noon with brats, burgers, and all the fixings. Thanks to my wife, Kathy, for making the great potato salad and chocolate chip caramel dessert. Everyone won a door prize and had some great raffle prizes. Had the MM Video on TV which showed some of the highlights from the past 38 outings.

Back out fishing for the afternoon and the action picked up with the big fish moving around 8pm. My partner, Gary, "Pop-Top" Winters, put on a top raider and we fished around the island on N. Twin and a big fish nailed it. Musky Pete "Set the hook!!". "I did" "What do I do??". "Get him in the boat".
Gary did a good job keeping a tight line and we soon had him in the boat. In the net I said it was a 43" or 44" fish. Got the hook out and lifted him out of the net and into the livewell. In the livewell, I said it was more like 45-46". Headed to the N. Twin Lodge dock to show off and get photos. Lots of people there to witness the fish. Taped out at an even 46" and around 24-25#. Got some good photos and video and released the fish.

We were sure 1st place was ours, but Greg Friedrich came in with a monster 49" fish also caught on a surface bait. And, Dick Grasse also lost a nice fish on a Topper Stopper, had it up to the boat when the bait just pulled loose.

Perry and Jane Clough also spotted a nice fish but not interested in any baits. A 49" fish was a big fish to beat, but a lot of people headed out Sunday morning to try.

No fish were caught on Sunday but I had a mid 40" fish follow up to the boat on a surface bait. Also had 3 other follows but no takers. Had the awards on Sunday at 12:30pm. Corey won a bait for 1st fish caught and David and Pierre each won something for smallest fish.

Get your reservations in NOW as cabin space is filling fast. Contact Gordie Shaw or Musky Pete to check on availability. We have the list of cabins and will keep it up to date. Right now we have cabin #9 open which sleeps 6 and a couple other cabins that we can add a couple people to.

Musky Pete!
