Rhett Lammers was not going to be outdone by his brother Reid so he put the screws to this 40" northern that thought it was going to swim off with his 6" Sand Cat.

Tom La Beau with a fine 47" muskie release that inhaled a hot purple shad pattern 8" Sand Cat. This fish was lying in ambush near a beaver lodge next to shore as seen in the photo. All it took was one short, downward jerk of the rod to put the Sand Cat into motion and this fish was as good as in the net.

Tom La Beau with another 40" muskie release caught on a 6" Papa Chubby. He had just cleaned a 2lb. walleye caught earlier in the day and lobbed the entrails back into the river when the fish inhaled it. A quick throwback with the chubby got her to open her jaws and it was picture time once again.

Lengendary guide Greg Clusiau with a 29.5" walleye that hammered a 6" Twitch Darter trolled on a 3-way river rig in heavy current. Greg is one of Tom La Beau's old fishing partners thats been chasing walleye, muskie and bass on the rivers bordering Canada and northern Minnesota for the last 20 or so years. This guy never quits no matter what the fishing conditions.
Heres Steve Beckett with a most incredible catch of muskie on the Flambeau River in northern Wisconsin last fall. All these fish were caught and released on the new 8" Sand Cat in hot purple shad pattern in the span of less than a week. Of course the biggest fish he got hooks into boatside on a figure eight made a power run and with the drag being set too tight broke him off. Steve knows this fish would have easily surpassed the 50" mark. No complaints though as this was the best muskie fishing hes ever had on the Flambeau in all the years hes fished it.

Heres another impressive muskie that was caught and released by Jason Gillis on the Flambeau River with his fishing partner Steve Beckett. Jason was using a most deadly technique by working the Sand Cat down to about 4' and allowing it to rise almost to the surface with its deadly off balance body roll wobble when the fish inhaled it. Once again the hot purple shad was the color these muskie were honing in on all week.
