Marvelous Musky

[Bassassins]

The weather has been all over the place this summer and that has been moving the water levels up and down in some of our favourite fishing spots. Today we were finally able to hit our home stretch for some bass and ended up with this HUGE surprise in the shallows of the Rideau. She must have been hungry to hit Basstards soft plastic but we won't complain. PB for the Bassassins at 47" and a fish we won't soon forget.

Check out the amazing video because anything I write won't give it justice. A quick little CPR .... ENJOY!

.... couple of pictures to build the excitement!!!

Awesome. I'd be worried of the ski running into my leg and sticking some hooks in me when it thrashes.

Yeah - we were both a little jumpy when she would change directions.... but all and all calm, cool and collected. More nervous that the light gear wouldn't hold up....

Nice fish indeed! Congrats! Is it just me or does that fish look blind?

[Djeep]

Looks blind to me at least in the one eye, nice fish though!
