Wow, that was a big fish 🎣

[kris1973 in reply to jimeka]

jimeka I’m hoping I don’t have nightmares...the creek in our backyard (40 feet wide in some spots) drains into that creek.🤣

Muskies are the ones I think about when I am in the water

[kris1973 in reply to falalalala]

falalalala They was a record Muskie caught near the end of my parent’s dock shortly before they bought the house. I was scared to let the girls even wade in the water.😱

[falalalala in reply to kris1973]

I can see why.They have teeth like dogs.

[kris1973 in reply to falalalala]

falalalala I’m still waiting for my mom to text me back with the size of it...hopefully it won’t give you nightmares! Plus last year there were 3 otter attack on swimmers...😱

[falalalala in reply to kris1973]

Otters? No kidding? I love them!

I've got them to play with me from behind the glass at a zoo.Twice! At two different zoos!

They couldn't get to me for a bite but given the chance, they might have as I like to dress as a giant hotdog when I go out.You know, dare to be different!

Just kidding.I don't do that.....yet

falalalala This one on their lake was an or OR Muskie: twincities.com/2017/07/21/m...

[falalalala in reply to kris1973]

How strange. I just read that article a minute ago. That poor kid's foot was torn up.

I used to bug out when bluegills would bite at my legs or feet.

A friend who dives saw a group of tiger muskies hanging out by the dock where he lives. He said they just "hovered" there in the water staring at him.

He didn't admit it,but probably peed in the pool on that day.🤣

[kris1973 in reply to falalalala]

falalalala I used to be scared @ our old cabin/house to wear a mask - even from the shore to the end of the dock because of all the blue gills...and snapping turtles!

[falalalala in reply to kris1973]

I went through the same thing at our cabin!

[kris1973 in reply to falalalala]

falalalala I forgot about the northerns in the live basket attached to the pole on the dock...🤣

[falalalala in reply to kris1973]

Yikes on them pike!

There was a pike marsh on the lake where our cottage was. There was always that threat when water skiing.🤣

[kris1973 in reply to falalalala]

falalalala We were in a cove that was wooded with lots of weeds on one side. We could catch big pike @ dusk off the dock. (Or shore with a lure), Our lake was an old logging lake so unmarked deadheads were a problem🤣

[falalalala in reply to kris1973]

Perfect place for pike

[kris1973 in reply to falalalala]

falalalala And rocks with Lilly pads on the other side perfect for bass...no wonder I was freaked out!😱

[falalalala in reply to kris1973]

Floating around on an inner tube not for you?? 🤣

[kris1973 in reply to falalalala]

falalalala I would but wouldn’t put my feet in the water! Used to anchor the pontoon out a ways-my dad even made his own concrete anchors & a ladder just for me! The yellow fun island was a lifesaver!🤣

[falalalala in reply to kris1973]

But your butt is in the water with an inner tube🤣

[carolek572 CommunityAmbassador]

What a tale to tell your friends for many many years! Wow!

[RoyceNewton]

wow

[mrsmike9]

That looks like several meals!

[hairbrain4]

That was awesome. Used to fish for sturgeon in the Sacramento River when I lived out there in the 79's. Never saw one quite that big though! Then catching it by its tale, smart kids.
