It’s the fourth of July and you all know what that means! Plain and simple- blowing shit up! It’s too bad I’m not back in Chicago to enjoy the lake shore fireworks show with the other 2-3 million people that will flood downtown Chicago this weekend.
"The very next day I stuck gold and hooked into a nice little muskie. He couldn't believe it, but I knew there had to be bigger ones. The next time we visited the lake we came better prepared with bigger reels, heavier line, and bigger lures. It wasn't long before I had another beautiful muskie, this time caught on a Rapala Suspending Husky Jerk, a lure that despite its small size, has caught me several big fish. Jon also landed his first muskie on that trip, an incredible 47 inch giant that was fooled into attacking an Original Floating Rapala."
The alarm goes off, it's 4:20 am October 5th, 2005. I made sure to find out how much time they needed to get ready since I'm generally awake and out the door in 5 minutes. To my surprise everyone was sticking to the plan, I thought for sure I would lose at least one of them since there are only two chairs in the panga, but they were both awake and ready in no time. When we arrived at Fishermen's Fleet we headed upstairs for some coffee and breakfast. Upstairs was the largest group I've seen, in total it would take four huge vans to shuttle us to La Ventana.
