    Not really.

    A 6'6" Shimano Med. action baitcast combo with 12 lb. Berkley XT and a Rapala Shad Rap Bass color.


    We see many 4-6 lb bass, a few pike, and some of these muskies from time to time in the weeds...so we keep heavier tackle locked n' loaded.

    We landed a 29" muskie last week, and we seen one in May that could almost eat the ones we caught. I'm guessing 5' long and 20+ lbs!

    I love to catch about anything...but I love crappie, perch and gill's the most.

    Man If I caught that thing, I would FREAK! That dude looks crazy, and I would have probably shot it. Are they good to eat?

    Beautiful Tiger. Did you release him in the same spot or do like i do and take him down lake about half a mile and then let it go? Or did you just keep him? He's legal size. I've gotten at least a dozen at shenango lake this year. Not tigers, northern pike.
