Fished Lake Tapps today with Henry. Caught a few small fish. But old Henry pulled a big one out of his rear end. He caught a 40" 21-03 Tiger Muskie! I am sure that nobody has a net that big in their boat. I know that I didn't. We still got it in the boat and just stood there and looked at it.

I must have ran to the front of the boat to the back 3 times before I finally netted it. After all was said and done, I had shoe marks on my seats, Tiger Muskie slime on all of my seats, and one broken Lamiglass rod ( I stepped on Henry's rod and broke it running around the boat like a 4 year old). It was worth it to see and hold that fish.

Tiger Muskie must have teeth or something sharp in their gills, because we were both bleeding after all was said and done. Again , worth it.

Fish was released to bite waterskiers, jet skiers, wake boarders and anybody else that bothers bass fisherman when they are fishing!!!

Yes, they do have sharp gills. Since we fish out of float -tubes we don't use a net and sometimes the gills are the only way to grab them (lightly).

Fished Tapps today. Caught smallmouth up to 3.9 lbs. .  I stared with crank baits from 9 to 10 am and no luck. Switched to twin tail grub and caught 5 fish in nest 1.5hrs.
