Michigan Muskie Alliance

Guys it is also important to remember that half these stories are complete BS made up by frustrated non musky anglers solely for the purpose of starting SHizen- dont get sucked in. Offer info and if they dont take it sleep well knowing you tried.

Well I went out in January one time with Pimp it was about 20 degrees and the lakes had blown open from a hellish wind. We spent twenty minutes doing donuts just below plane to break up the remaining ice in the bay we wanted to fish. Then we trolled for about four or five hours in a 15 mph wind that...

John- Sometimes it is just a matter of getting the grease out of the bearing so the cam action of the rollers can work. I had the same problem with all my Morrums until I took them apart and boiled the grease out of the bearings. This is normally a problem when the weather starts to get into the upp...

Lastly, what kind of weirdo goes muskie fishing wearing tan khakis and a yellow dress shirt?

I dont know but it sounds like that person may be bringing Sexy Back...

I went over to Houghton Lake last saturday to go boat shopping with Bearclaw and there were a dozen cars on Missaukee, they said Houghton has 22 inches plus still... Incidentally he bought a new boat, he was going to buy a gay one but I talked him into a better one. http://www.spicersboatcity.com/ne...

Its not that exciting as far as cars go... It is in my 95 jeep, the I-6 engine which starts as a 242ci and ends up as a 275ci 4.6 liter. Returns are fair going from ~205CHP to ~290CHP with 340FT/LB. So in that light unit it is wicked, the problem as with all strokers is heat and pre-ignition. The CR...

I see.... That is always the unclear part is what exactly comprises an "additive package" is it anything like the Colonels "secret recipe"?? [smilie=biggrin.gif] I have been trying to find the perfect solution of fuel to run in my stroker engine and have experimented with various concoctions which h...

Chemi- The issue of octane rating loss is one that I am not crystal clear on, I know that when fuel sits with stabilizer it does not varnish but it will still lose its octane rating. I have not been able to find anyone who can explain it to me chemically? Is it an issue of the straight chains losing...

Fin- The issue with old fuel is primarily varnish which we all know is nasty and plugs things up. The ethanol appears to be as, if not more, stable than the alkanes that make up gasoline. What is lost during the winter is the octane rating of the overall fuel. What does this mean tou you??? If you g...

Chemi- I have to tell you that at some point in your life you will feel more joy in musky fishing and more pride about being in this group, the day you hand that combo to someone else a few years from now, than you will landing your biggest fish. I am proud to see how willing the people in this club...

Im certainly in favor of that-- I think though you would be wise to take Jason up on the rod offer and I am 100% certain you can get a reel from somebody for the same price.

Chemi - Now I REALLY know you are an engineer --- The question I have for everybody is how in the heck can you possibly work a jerkbait with a spinning rig ??? I dont think that it is even remotely possible. I also think we should set a date for the "ITYS" party for Chemi, lets see opening weekend i...

Hi Jim- I am probably the closest club member to you as I am in Mesick. I think we may have one or two in TC but not completely sure. We are having an outing on the Intermediate Chain the first weekend in May, that would be a great opportunity for you to meet a whole bunch of us at once. Kevin PS if...
