A Day on the Water — Musky Banger Popper
7) Up North Musky on Popper Pattern, June 7 & 8
Kayak Musky Musky Banger Popper
Fished my my new Musky, flash bang version of Bob's Banger. It was a convincing success although I got few fish landed to show off. The 5/0 White Banger got blown up by 2 big Muskies, and got cellphone video of one. That Musky actually came at the popper twice, hitting it well enough the second time to get stuck by the hook for about a second. Also juvenile muskies, small mouth bass and small-medium pike hit it on the retrieve or in the figure 8. Bad luck getting the 5/0 hook to catch and set deep enough to hold. I tried it...
