Tiger Muskie

One of my best fishing trips ever. Hit the water with muskyhunter and my boy,a few minutes in and I had a musky on and my little boy assisted in the reeling effort,not a beast but went 31 inches. Later boated a 36 and muskyhunter picked up a 31. We also had a few follows and even had a topwater hit,I watched the tiger cruising at full speed,mouth wide open and went leaping out of the water and missed the bait in the process. We found tigers hanging close to weedbeds.
Pretty good fishing overall,3 tigers in 4 hours but I'm eager to see the reports from Lake Newman.
Time to get out there and fish

Congrats Kevin good to see your son out and enjoying fishing...Good looking fish as well. I think the earth was a the right axis for everyone to catch Tigers yesterday. We caught 8 total yesterday on Newman and lost 2 others... Good fishing everyone...

Mark K and I caught 2 lost one and saw 3 others. All that and I had a very late start! I had to recover a fishing pole from the bottom first, so I didn't get to wet a line till 12:30. Good day for us with my largest being 39".

Totally agree,Friday's fishing seemed to be very productive all over. Good weather,good people and good times. Right on Doug,I think Mark is getting these tigers dialed in reel well. Nice job you too. I ended losing a tiger in the weeds,crafty little buggers

Pretty much bass baits with a bigger profile such as crankbaits,spinnerbaits,swimbaits etc. But bucktails are very effective as well. If your interested in learning more,shoot me a pm and I will try to help you out as best as I can.
