Well, the hunt is on again!! My 1st outing was in Fredericton on 1 May for muskies. 7 hrs and 0 fish. My partner for the day had one follow right to the boat but no hookup. The muskie swiped at the spinnerbait twice during the figure 8!!On Sun, 2 may went out again for muskie. 11 hrs total and again no fish. It took 2 years to get my 1st muskie (42 1/2 x 19" ) and I hope it doesnt take that long to get another one. What I did get is a bad sunburn and a damn cold which has been really hard to shake. I wonder if old age has anything to do with that,ha ha. Well I guess it is better to be a bit over the hill than under it. My next outing was in the Alma area for trout. Caught 5, two got off, 2 were released and one was badly hooked and bleeding. My buddy had him for supper. Went out again the next day to the same lake and caught 1 trout, unfortunately he also became lunch. This year I have a book right beside my PC in which to record all the fish I am going to catch this year. I will close for now with a pic of the St John river on 2 May during the muskie hunt!!
