I was looking for the place to report a muskie catch and saw this thread. I wasn't getting a bite on the west side of the dam at Calamus sunday, so I tried this walk trolling the kids are talking about on the internets

. I get about half way down the dam, got stuck on a "seam" on the soil cement and decided to turn around and give up. I thought I hit another "seam" until it kicked, it was about 3' of water and from a distance I thought it was a northern, but new it wasn't a walleye. I started reeling back to it and got to about 15' away when it rolled, no reddish fins and had the vertical stripes of a muskie! It was about 30" and when it rolled, cut my line. I did not think their were muskies in Calamus so I was shocked today when I looked at the stocking reports.
