lovemyprovince Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 I was fishing on lake nipissing i was throwing a bucktail just for fun. i lost a bet so my buddy was workin the minnkota. i was rockin the boats arse. we were throwin on top of a shoal.. we had a few follows... until a monster... like i mean a 60 incher followed my cowgirl in i was not paying attention and dint figure8 as the boat moves foreward the prop slowly rotates causing a flash because its ss... the muskey propelled the propeller. it was nuts! it has a hold of it and held on for like 10 secs! i was considering using my livewell for a toilet after seeying that. i wanted to get that thing so i threw all i had.. tiger tubes.. bulldawgs. even buzzed cowgirls for another hour...nothin' but it was cool!
Governator Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 You obviously should've tied on a spare propeller blade for bait, what were you thinking?.. tiger tubes and bulldawgs...

Joey Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 Ya, I've heard of that before, them attacking the trolling motor. Too bad you couldn't hook into her. You know where she lives now tho Joey
Musky or Specks Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 I rmember this huge musky on a shoal on the French we knew it was in the area and tried to get it every day twice a day for a week. How did we know it was in the area? Everytime we fished the shoal he'd show up and sit five feet back and five feet down of the silver 5 blade prop on the 250 you could tell he was contemplating whether he should bite it or not but he wouldnt touch any bait we threw at him
Guest gbfisher Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 The story's usually bigger than the big one that got away...... All lost fish are big fish.
lovemyprovince Posted July 13, 2009 Author Report Posted July 13, 2009 i never lost him... he never bit! lol
fishingisliving Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 I would of gotten her! lol just kidding. These things often happen when we are distracted. focus man! focus! :-) Love reading that.
richyb Posted July 14, 2009 Report Posted July 14, 2009 Do it the good old way , use the prop to lure her in and spear that pig J/K
Whitespinnerbait Posted July 14, 2009 Report Posted July 14, 2009 Do it the good old way , use the prop to lure her in and spear that pig J/K You left out the part where you parade around the neighborhood showing it off .. then tossing it off a bridge when nobody's looking.....
bucktail Posted July 14, 2009 Report Posted July 14, 2009 I also have had a big musky come up within a foot of the the running prop while motoring out of a weedbed. How are they so docile 99% of the times and so over the top aggresive the other 1%??
Cookslav Posted July 14, 2009 Report Posted July 14, 2009 How are they so docile 99% of the times and so over the top aggresive the other 1%?? Stress related anger managment issues...tough day at the office pehaps
smbhunter Posted July 14, 2009 Report Posted July 14, 2009 I believe it. I had a similar experience on Pigeon lake a couple years ago. A muskie followed up my buddies lure and was going crazy following it into a figure 8, but eventually lost interest and started backing off. At this point I decided to do some figure 8's as well, and the muskie responded immediately, but swam right past my lure and stopped in front of the trolling motor, stared right at it for awhile, then took off. It wasn't a big fish, maybe 40" at best, but it was cool to watch.
