My dad was so worried about the muskie going into shock being out of the water he didn't measure it nor did we have the tools. We estimate it was at least 50'' + give or take. Was caught on a clown rapalla with 6lb test line (bass fishing setup.) Might head out this weekend to do some crappie/bass fishing. Ill try out 1/32 jigs, just not sure what to put on them. TBH MJK it was your posts that lead me to hit 35 up, and cant thank enough.

Dad was visiting in town so i decided to take him Crappie/Bass fishing on Lake 35 after reading some of the posts on this forum. Was around 7 AM on an overcast day, and was hoping to catch me a decent Bass, and make sure my dad had some fun. Having only been on the lake once I was heading straight across from the boats so my dad decided to put his Clown in the water while we made are way towards the spot i wanted to fish, then BAM. Took about an hour to get this in, and since we didnt have a net I had to maneuver the boat all the way back to shore just to land the thing. Didn't catch any crappie (was using medium minnows under a slip bobber, dont really know what i am doing tbh), but did catch around 10 small bass. One day ill catch a nice Bass out of busch (tired of lake 33 letting me down), but glad I was able to give my dad a good time. Side note that muskie was released back in that lake for the next angler to give it a go =)
