My daughter and I hit Mayfield for a couple days. She has had been wanting to try musky fishing so I jumped at the chance. Arrived at 7am Thursday morning and about an hour into it, picked up nice 4' tiger on a Bull Dawg that had energy for days.
About 10 am my daughter was throwing a Shallow Raider and got boatside, started a figure 8 and a 30" tiger flashed in from about 15' out and blew up her lure. She did great, landed it,snapped a pic and released it to grow. It was pretty cool seeing how excited she was to finally catch one, it reminded me of my first one 20+ years ago.
Ended up boating 6 total in 1-1/2 days, countless follows and one premature release due to equipment failure. Mostly shallow crankbaits but bucktails and plastics were paying off as well.
