Booya! Dem's some local boys right der.
Very cool. Nice to see people of da nort land on da moldychum dont ya know
Holy Sh!t... I envy you Musky guys, thats dedication! Nice fish!!!!
awesome!
Afton Angler + musky tribe = legit as fuck.
AA is a poacher on private waters. Shame Shame...
Yeah, and that picture in The Drake was a great representation of how a professional guide should carry one's self.
Local boys? Are you from Minnesota? What are your true home waters?
Afton Angler + musky tribe = legit as fuck. Really!? You have to be kidding! Who are you? Fist time I have heard of and dug into the "Afton Angler" . Checked out the blog, blah blah blah blah and all is see is a smoke screen. Does this guy need this much attention or what. He would be lost at sea if he llived in south FL. Guides would not put up with that ego.
Exactly definitely sick of all this afton angler musky hype and especially all the cock sucking on the drake. As a dedicated musky fly angler in my opinion his patterns are garbage and tiny. I fish for musky for the take not the attention. I am not saying i haven't posted a picture here and there but enough is enough afton cool you can catch musky on the fly so can a lot of other people who don't feel the need to jerk off to their on pictures and short stories posted on drake.
Nice work Double A. I gotta get up there
God damn you guys sound angry. The shack nasties setting in? FUCK! This guy is the real deal, he has dedicated his life to one of the most under appreciated misunderstood fish and has been rewarded with a world record. Be happy for the guy, geebus!

WOW! what did he do to you SRV?
Hey SRV. Go shove that white and lumpy back in your ass and then maybe something good will come out your mouth for once.
Why is SRV such a pussy? He talks shit and doesn't back it up with any details. If you know soo much about the midwest, where are your musky pics? where is your world record? Come on SRV we are waiting...
SRV is a Super Revolting Vagina but maybe he can't catch anything over 15" so that's why he is such a shit talker.
I am totally out of the loop on all this chest pounding talk but.....I dug up the details on this so called MUSKIE predator and found out he basically just started fishing these fish. It looks like Afton Angler has been first a self professed guru of Minnesota trout water, then the Brule and now finally Muskie. This Afton angler dude is a choooooch. I don't know him but I don't think he knows himself.
So you have no frame of reference here, Mike P. You're like a child who wanders into the middle of a movie.
Ponds cum and cseverin are obviously part of the suck and love AA. I think once they do their own research and actually meet AA and know the folks that I know who are Musky Anglers. They will concur. AA poached his world record on private waters in which he never had access to from the owners. He sneaked on the property without permission. Also his " world record" is on 6lb class tippit. not a world record..a record in its class. So go blow AA some more ....Even the people he actually started his " Biz" with bailed on him at Ashgeon Lodge...
AA took that fish out of public water - the owner of the property was the same guy that rowed him on that fish. And I believe it was 36lb record, not 6lb.
For more details see below.

I dont recall anytime AA said he was God's gift to anything - trout, steelhead, musky, northern wisco women...
Line class record? that doesn't even count does it? I have one of those for mountain whitefish. Records are gay.
SRV,
I've never fished with the guy and I hate the Drake elitists.
You never answered my original question... What did he do to YOU?
So now with your latest rant (by the way thanks for responding) you have brought up a few more questions as to why the hell you guys are soo worked up about a dude.
Are you the Land owner?
Do you fly fish for Musky? or do you just know people that do?
Are you that guide from Boulder Junction, Bill what's his name?
Do you catch bigger fish than him on your private water? Private water? wait...Are you Donnie Beaver?
I just wanted to know why you guys have soo much anger towards the guy, it cant just be that whole "private water" issue.
Hold on...Were you the old man that yelled at me when I was 6 for fishing on your pond?
Oh god did I just walk into the middle of a Musky gang war and step on the leader's shoes?
Soo many unanswered questions...
JeffR,. Whitefish are "gay", not a 51+ inch Musky.
Records are gay, fish for yourself not to try to be a fuckin hero. Thats gay. Your missing the point of the sport. Is this cat that needy? I can hardly believe it. I talked to a few other guys about about this dude and apparently he just makes for great comic relief on message boards. Your right white fish are gay but I did hold a world record. Yipee. Oh well, I'm out.
