The spinner bait was on. I mean really on. I got onto a bar with some CABBAGE weeds on it. These weeds were thick and the best way to blast through them was with a SPINNERBAIT. I caught this fish while I was guiding a client. He insisted that I was to fish with him so I did not feel bad about catching it. Furthermore, he caught himself a 37.5inch Northern about 40 yards away from this one.

I caught this fish about 5:00pm. I could not believe how shallow it was in the middle of a bright sunny day. I caught this 45-inch musky and then about five casts later I caught a 41-inch tiger musky. We then checked the other side of the cabbage bar and my client caught the northern. I guess you could say the fish were biting. We had several other muskies follow are baits and we were shaking the rest of the evening.

I caught it on a black custom made spinnerbait that I bought at the musky expo. It was double bladed and worked well at high velocity. The tiger musky was caught on a TOP RAIDER and the big northern was caught on a white spinnerbait. What I learned from this day is to ALWAYS recheck the shallows periodically throughout the fishing day to make sure your trophy has not snuck up behind you.
