Man alive are there Northerns! I just googled this and looks like they are up there alright! I spend much time further south and pike have found there way into quite a few southern lakes.I have caught northern's to about 14 pounds but looks like JDK is getting bigger muskies! Now I know why Cabela's in Scarborough has so many musky lures. Last edited by BobinNH; 07/23/14. The 280 Remington is overbore. The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

No eaters though No, some cheapo bargin basement things I found locally. They work great on cod also. I went again last night and never moved a fish. Fickle buggers they are.
