The few muskies my wife caught with me and almost every ski I've caught. My most memorable one has to be the second muskie I ever caught, it was a stout little 32" on a sucker lift of rig. I set the hook and the next thing I knew it came flying out of the water and up over the bow of the boat, mouth open and head first into my nuts...where there was an explosion of fish, two trebles and sweatpants. As I stood there stunned with two trebles hanging off the crotch of my sweats like a Christmas ornament (thank God for sweats) and the ski on the floor I was hooked, both literally and figuratively. At that moment I thought any kind of fish capable of trying to bite off ones manhood...well those were the ones I wanted to fish for.
What's up Stochl! If you don't have anything going on this Thurs., come on down to the Midwest Musky Club meeting. Tommy Gun will be there. We meet in Alsip at 7:30. Talk to you soon.

I've had very little fishing time in on Okauchee in November....up until this year I had a winter job to suppliment the seasonal guiding, so I was usually back at work from late October through April. I guess I'll be fishing it more from here on out as my winter job went down the crapper along with the economy. So I have no inside info on the cisco spawn.
I am sorry for getting back to you so late, just saw your comment...Okauchee has been tough for most guys this year. I have kind of avoided it as the other lakes have simply been on fire.
Slowwww!!! 6 fish were caught. 59 teams. Biggest was 41.5 By Frank B, and Rich G.
Russ Shaller, and his son Chris won the series with a 2nd place 38.5. Henry, and I took 4th with a 34 1/2 I caught on a Hellhound. Slow but still a blast!
What up Ryan? Just talked to Jason and he told me you guys were buddies. Very cool. Hope you guys slay em in Indy. Things are on the brink of bein awesome out there. Glad you guys will be using the sucker rig too, Me and the crew I fish with love it. Weve caught most our BIG fish on it. I cant wait to try it on Fox chain. I sell em for 20$, Just give me a shout if you want one and Ill drop it in the mail.Check out our shirts too. They kick ass! Hope to meet you one of these days, drink a few beers and talk musky.Talk to you soon dude.
