John Lohmiller (Crosslake, MN) looks surprised by this monster 52 inch muskie! And he should be! John was fishing for walleyes with 6 pound test and a blue/green jig and the muskie swallowed the walleye he was reeling in. This happened to him a couple years ago, the same scenario with a 49 inch muskie.

Guide report: walleyes are on mid-lake humps in 20-30 feet of water, northern pike are in weedy bays in 4-6 feet of water, muskies are on weed lines and bass are on their spawning beds.
