from my friend Pete, The Esoxman...

Each year about this time, hear from my friend Pete/ The Esoxman, about his annual Canada trip. This year Pete had 8 Muskie and 6 of them were over 40 inches and one at 48inches. As usual, his son Matt also accompany him on the trip and adds to the count of Muskie encounters. An annual fishing trip like this, with your family is something I think I can get into now, now that my kids are a little older. Pete continues to be a mentor to me beyond fishing.

Looking forward to catching up soon Pete. Seems like we're crossing paths in the air.

My good friend and my original fishing mentor Pete sent me his recent catches from his annual trip up to Canada with his son. Pete writes:

"4 days were rain, wind. cold water and some tough fishing. The rest of the week turned out pretty good. I had 8 muskies and my son had 3. I had 5 over 40" with one at 48". All in all not a bad week."

Tight lines Pete.
