Not very big, but was caught while fishing for bass casting an XRAP Shad. 2 weeks ago.

Ya, it was pretty funny. Totally wasn't expecting it. When you're fishing for 1-3 pound bass or pickerel, a 5 or 6 pound ski will brighten up the day!!!

Nice fish. I got a 40" muskie earlier this year bass fishing with a 6" senko fished wacky style on a number two gamakatsu hook...what an experience even to get her into the boat, take a picture and release. Just a tip when posing with the muskie or even pike, from a survival standpoint, they recommend you not hold the fish vertically, hold them under the belly in a horizontal position. When held vertically, especially on the larger fish, their organs tend to fall and get out of position. Just a though for future reference..Again, nice fish and I am sure lots of fun to catch.

Thanks 413!! It was lots of fun. I haven't caught a lot of Muskie, but I know you have to handle them with care. I don't measure them, or weigh them, cause I try not to keep them out of the water. I just take a quick picture and quickly get them back in the water. They always swim away.
