[Mayfly]

Jody Dahms caught this 54" muskie with 28" girth and weighing 52 pounds
outside Fishermen's Wharf Resort on the southeast side of Lake Mille Lacs on
Friday, October 6th!




Outdoors Weekly will have a feature article on this Monster in this weeks issue!


Here is a "clip" from the article:

Steve and Jody?s memorable catch occurred on Friday night around 7:30 p.m.  There was a full moon and they were fishing in 3 to 4 foot waves.  They had been fishing for about 13 hours that day without ever having a bite and, according to Jody, they felt ?physically abused? by the toughness of the day.  Diehard anglers that they are, they kept on going ? and hoping.  By the time evening rolled around, the waves were so rough that Steve had to switch from using his electric motor to his outboard motor in order to maneuver the boat around the spots they were fishing.  The exhaustion of the day wore them out and eventually they decided to call it a day.  Of course, they had to get two last casts in before they left!
