I thought it was Bret at Tapps. I remeber hearing about it,I think it might even say in an older thread
on here. Its not in the Lunge Log.. so I can't be sure and I'm not sure why its a secret.

I don't think anyone has a secret since we all talked about it during the last Chapter meeting. I guess some of you were not there. Hmmmmmmmm

Kevin is correct. It was Brett on Lake Tapps from a float tube. He is the master!

When we took Mr. Larry Ramsell out on Lake Tapps last Sunday for a few hours we saw one...ahhh...does that count? LOL!

I do believe it was Brett who saw it...While we had shore lunch Larry commented... "the reason Brett see's so many muskies is because he has muskies painted on the back side of his fishing glasses!"

Larry is not only a top notch muskie angler but he also is a pretty funny guy.

A good time was had by all on that beautiful day:)

Tiger Muskies are sterile.

Caught one right at 50' on Silver the day before easter. It only weighed 18 lbs, but a conservation officer I spoke with said they lose quite a bit of weight during the winter months.

The end of Feb, there was a 8 lb Northern taken near 7-Bays while fishing for Walleye.

Nice! Looks like I need to start logging some fish. I'm still hunting for my first '09 tiger.
