Yeah I saw that too. Nice to see Michigan get some press in the mag but hopefully it doesn't make Murray an even bigger zoo.

Don't you think that whomever is reading Musky Hunter and fishes in Michigan already knows Murray has muskies? It's not like a photo of one 40 incher in MHM is going to draw a crowd from MN.
Stupid Fish!!!!

It might even draw some chuckles...
Seriously though, you are talking one of the most pressured waters in the state (maybe more than LSC) and it still doesn't compare to Webster. Once the parking lot is full on a weekday and there are five guides out there consistently then we can talk pressure.
Self interest is for the past, common interest is for the future.

yea its like i posted this about that kid that kept that 45 incher through the ice, and it was said it was his first musky on the lake after 6 years of fishing there? Then these two guys both said it was their first fish as well. Murray is a busy lake, but like i posted in the members thing, it is never very busy during the wk at all. The wkends are what make it busy, specially with the pleasure boats all over.

Love that pic Brad! I never thought I'd see the day when a regular Mepp's Musky Killer would look big hanging from a muskie's mouth!
