I caught a pike this summer in Balsam lake and it got me thinking that there must be some Tiger muskies in there. Has any one caught a tiger musky in the kawartha lakes? Is the MNR doing anything to stop the slow invasion of pike across the kawarthas. I remember when Canal lake use to have a musky fishery until the pike made it into that lake and now its a lake filled with hammer handles. Same thing with lake Dalrymple, there use to be some nice musky in that lake but then the pike made it in there and lots of hammer handles and very few musky left. I have heard the same with Elephant lake, that pike have made it in there and the muskie fishery is declining.
