6-29-14 Sun

6-29-2014 Sun 130PM-9PM myself and Scott
Weather: (1755) S9, light rain with storms in area, 73˚
Water: stained but clear, 74˚
Where: Potters Flowage, Black River Falls, WI
Caught: Me: 1 LMB 12", 1 Musky 25", Scott: 2 LMB 14"

Comments:

It was an exploratory trip to Potters Flowage in Jackson County. This body of water is stocked with muskies, plus it also has some LMB. From the results of our fishing I would almost have to say it is easier to catch muskies than Large Mouth bass. I threw everything and anything at the bass and only caught one. Scott was able to catch two and both his and my fish came off Senko type worms.
I did catch the only musky of the day and that was caught on a yellow and orange buck tail. I also lost a pretty decent size one on the same bait. It is probably a good thing the big musky got off, because I had forgotten to bring a net. Scott had no musky action at all.

Observations:

This is nice remote body of water with lots of structure. The largemouth bass are very hard to come by, but they muskies seem to be abundant. We saw four other boats musky fishing, so I think the lake gets lots of musky fishing pressure.
