Had a chance to slip out once again this morning and headed out to Lime Lake to see if I couldn't find me a walleye or five along a rocky point just outside a weed edge. If this didn't pan out I was willing and ready to assault the monster carp that live here as well with my can of corn! Turned out I got sidetracked by both species! I managed a few smallish bass for what the water holds on the edges under some ovrhanging tree limbs, but for the most part fishing was slow but fun as always! Decided to switch pressentations and get a bit deeper in the weeds as the sun rose and tied on a Tsunami 4" mullet/black back split tail minnow on the heavy side and proceeded to work the edges a litle further out with a high rod tip quick twitching motion right along the bottom back to the dock. The dang weeds hung me up numerous times before finally there was no denying I had hooked a "fighting weed"!! LOL Here's the only pics I could muster up all alone out there of the tiger muskie from today! Oh yeah, once again.... no tape on me but those are 2x6 planks the dock is constructed of and don't leave out the gaps between them neither!

I'll give you 30+ on it.
Nice Tiger. We caught one in the Upper Hudson that dragged our canoe around with 3 of us in it. Got it to shore when my buddy told me to "Lip it" as we had no net. Yeah Right! I kicked at with my foot trying to get it a shore when it through the hook and was gone.
What were you using we caught ours on a Dare Devil?

4" Tsunami. Problem with this lake is they (DEC) is tryin to erradicate them and doing no further stockings. PMO that public access is not eassily accesable with that goal in mind.
I don't keep them, so's I could care less. He got released! ;D
Now with the new urge to stock walleye fry and crappy being the new craze, I think we may see a few of the survivors grow beyond this. A friend of mine took a 39" out of here not long ago. Yes, they are not able to reproduce, but the ones that are still in there are that much the wiser!
