"Slammed" my 1st skie
 

Finally touched down on some muskie waters & got a few lines wet. Had a few tip-ups going with small/med/large live bait, and was jigging here & there with the same and wax worms. Had 2 bites. One, on a wooden tri-fold tip-up w/flag, bait stolen. Next, was a muskie on my homemade "slammer". I rarely lose fish on this thing. Automatic hook-set when fish takes slack line from hanging bobber, and drag still works to set preferences. Rigged with a modified Tweety Bird pole...I know, lol, its caught some diff BIG fish though!! My 1st muskie so far but beat the Skunk so I'm 1 for 1 in the Ville! Def be back there soon!

wow very nice! nice home made jaw jacker too, i've thought about making one of those too, i'll have to try it.

i've never got a muskie through the ice, but then again i've only really targeted them successfully in open water so i'll have to check it out!

i rarely see the ones with the spot paterns, very nice!
