  • In this crazy video I go out during a stormy day and encounter a very girthy tiger musky sitting by the public dock. My sucker has absolutely no chance when I toss him in front of the beast which gobbles it up in a second. After the hookset, things get crazy and he takes me for a wild ride through the lake jungle! 🐅

    Hey man, I grew up in that area. I have caught some of my biggest largemouth over at Lac Lavon not far from there. I highly encourage you invest in an inflatable raft or canoe to fish that lake as large boats with outboards aren't allowed. I promise you, you won't be disappointed. Back in the early 2010's it was very possible to catch bass of both species around that 6lb mark, and huge pike over 40in. It never receives pressure aside from the dock. I used to have an inflated raft made by Intex and gerry rigged a small trolling motor to it. Bout the only lake out there in the twin cities I'd ever spend time fishing, also helps I lived three blocks from the lake growing up.

I just would add, as others have: Kudos for your flawless handling of The Beast, you were paying attention when your father, grandfathers and uncles were giving free fish handling lessons ; I did see you ran your hand all along that muskie's giant jaw, but hey, who hasn't done that in the heat of the moment?! BTW: I just caught my all-species lifetime PB, 42" muskie, light pearl green, heavily barred, Jurassic, a brutal Michigan beauty! Tight lines, young man.

When he walked away and a muskie grabbed it and since it was a weird angle leaning on the rail the top 2 ft of rod just broke off. We were all like WTF just happened?!?
