Arrive at lake around noon Monday. After pulling boat off the rack and putting everything including the motor on we realized we didn't have the Fuel line. Took till 1:30 waiting before my better half brought it to us. My two buddies Fish trolling with wedding ring setup and rooster tail. I set up to troll Rappala Rattletrap Red and black in color thinking who knows could hook a Tiger Musky. Trolled for over two hours with one hit of a smallie on the rooster tail, never made it in the boat. Trolled for an additional hour and decided to return and cast lures where we had the smallie on. The change in stopping the boat to reel up must have triggered the strike. Just started to rip my line in and it went the other way. Picked up a close to 36 inch Muskie on the Rappala. First time I have caught one. Probably a keeper but returned to lake to be caught another day. Trolled more to try to pick up another, no luck. Went to where the smallie was on and caught one 2.5 lbs smallie on a rooster, black in color. Not many fish but the Tiger was well worth the trip.
