Catching muskies is challenging
If Ohio has an ultimate game fish, that fish would have to be the muskie. They reach sizes of 50-plus pounds, fight ferociously and are temperamental and unpredictable enough to make catching them a challenge comparable to enticing an eight-pound brown trout with a fly. August can be a tough month to find one, especially if anglers use the same tactics they used in May and June. But even though they might seem to have lockjaw, the water is hot and their metabolism high, so they're eating a lot of forage fish now, and maybe a fishing lure too, if you present it right. .
Going fishing in the fall
I can hardly believe the calender! Summer is rapidly coming to a close and fall fishing is right around the corner. I do not know if it is me or if time just seems to be passing by very quickly these days. As I sit here at my computer writing this, I am a week away from another milestone in my life. After working for 34 and a half years, the last 29 here for Placer County, I am retiring from my real job. On Friday, September 1st, I will be walking out of an office that has been my workplace since I moved up here in 1977. It will seem strange and I certainly will miss my co-workers whom I also consider good friends. I wonder just how much my life will change without my regular job. There will be a little more time for fishing and a little golf. Perhaps a part-time job doing something that I like or that would get me some golfing or skiing privileges might be something that I will do.
