It Comes To An End

All good thinigs really do have to come to an end... I ran into a road block when it came to makeing it 12 trips in a row.  I was out on Monday with Jim and Frank on Lake Minnetonka and we did not boat a fish.  About 3 hours into our trip I told the guys that the streak was on the line and I really wanted them to boat a fish.  They did have a couple chances but unfortunately were not able to capitalize. Since Frank was in town from Florida and I really wanted to get him his first muskie I asked them if I could take them out on Tuesday Morning on Lake Waconia to give it another try.  So yesterday morning we were back at it and ready to start a new streak.  I figured since they broke the streak I better give them a chance to start it again at 1.  We did not have a ton of chances but when it comes to muskie fishing you may only get a chance or two.  Frank did have a chance at catching his first muskie and starting the streak again at 1.  Some how when the giant fish ate his bait he did not get it hooked and the fish swam off.  No one says muskie fishing is easy and most would agree that the challenge is what draws them to the toothy critters.  So now I have started a different kind of streak.  I have gone 2 trips without a fish and hope to break that tonight.  I will report back with pictures and info after tonights trip.
