    I’m sure everyone that has taken advantage of this forum has benefitted from it in one way or another. Late last summer I took Dave Hoggard “Hawger” up muskie fishing on Mille Lacs. Very little success, but had a great time. He promised me a trip to a private pond he calls “Secret Lake” in return. I finally got hooked up with Dave and got out there. What a blast. I’ll try my best to attach some fish pictures along with a couple shots of a GREAT new plastic Dave has come up with. We killed the bass with it and I have since fished for walleyes with it and had great success on a small lake here n Wisconsin. Thanks to Dave for the trip and to FTR for such a great sight to share trips and great fishing info! Have a great weekend everyone.

    I can’t get the pics of the plastics to post here but you can see them on http://www.catch-n.com.
    The ones we used are the Ring’n Grub and the Monster Do.
