Caught my first Tiger Muskie yesterday. Last cast of the day! Didn't weight it but I'm guess around 12-15 lbs.

Thanks guys. It was really nice to end the day on that note. I was skunked until then.

My guess is about 26" long, which should put it around 6-7lbs. Beautiful fish, love all these good looking Muskies getting caught. Now where is mine???:confused:

Thanks skunk. I think your a little light on the weight. The pic is a little deceiving though. I'll send you PM about where I got it. I saw your post on the other muskie catch thread. I can't believe you haven't landed one of these yet. You are always killing it with Pike. :) BTW I got on a Gary Yamamoto Hula Swimmer.

Nice fish. Don't worry about the weight, no musky fisherman will ever ask how much your musky weighed. The fact is that unless you have a sling, weighing or even holding a musky vertically puts a lot of strain on their internal organs. It's good to think that most muskies that are caught are released, so handling them with care is good practice. That being said, only the inches are important, which I would put btw 30 and 32. Very pretty fish. Congrats again.
