A true Musky, not a tiger
« on: June 12, 2010, 06:45:26 AM »
Was fishing with my brother, we were fishing a small stretch of river where we usually get 4-6 pound smallmouths. He throws in and wham rod loads up. Starts taking off, I am laughing, he has been fighting this fish for about 45 seconds I throw in about 25 feet behind where his fish is. Next thing you know the fish is peeling line again and wham I get hit. Next thing we are doing is fighting each other. This thing ate his bait first then while being fought turns around and eats mine.

Enjoy the pictures. I know I enjoyed taking them.....

Very cool.  Never caught one...
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
