Met up with Aquaman at pinview this morning. He was already in his tube when I got there. I decided to stick to the shore. We where on the North side just over the dam (narrows). I was using a senko knockoff - wave worms swirl series 4". I hooked my first smallie shortly after arriving but one off them "Tigers" didn't seem to have the patience to wait till I released him and decided to have breakfast! He smacked the smallie grabing him near the head and somehow managed to hook himself also right in the jaw perfect hookup! You can imagine my surprise when I got a look at him with an 8" smallie clamped tightly in his jaws. Kind of looked like those old cartoons with a dog holding a bone between his jaws.
I was using my ultra light combo (great fun[laugh]) but he seemed to come in pretty easily, probably in shock, until he got a look at Aquaman who was knee deep in water waiting to grab him. Guess he didn't like the look of him because he took off with a vengance stripping line and almost spooled me and repeated the scene at least 2 more times. I don't think the fishies like you too much Chris [  ]. Wish I knew how long I was fighting him It was quite a while. Aquaman was standing in that water for at least 20 minutes plus the time it took him to beach his tube and get over to me. Well... the  part is he spit the smallie and without that 8" cushion between his toothy jaws he easily clamped down on the line and "Hasta La Vista". The good news is we got the smallie[cool] bite marks and all. Chris guesstimated the length at 34" but I say 60"[angelic] who are you going to believe? Chris, why didn't you dive in a grab him? He was only about 3' away from you and dog tired, you saw how slow he swam away. I think you would have won that wrestling match! After Chris left at about 11:30 I high tailed it over to the south side, did alittle cliff hanging to get to the water and caught around 15 nice smallies. All where well over 12" except for 1 at about 6". I'm sure I missed 2 bigguns cause I couldn't move them with my ultra light and off course they spit they hook. [signature]

I think those muskies are attracted to Aquaman. He always has an encounter with a muskie when goes to pineview. You know, they kinda look alike. LOL.
Great story Hustler it gets your heart pumping does'nt it. [signature]

You know now that you mention it that would explain alot! He may have thought aquaman was his "gold digging" wife. "Honey, what do you got between your jaws, give it here". Can you blame the fish for running?

All in good fun ] The scary thing though is I know you would have done it! It would take alot to get me near those teeth, especially in the water on his own turf.[signature]

Nice report Hustler, that must have been a rush when that big set of teeth came up after the smallie. Too bad you didn't get it in, that would have been a cool picture, a muskie with a smallie in it's mouth. Better luck next time. WH2

Old Doug Miller reported on Saturday the the DWR had trapped a 73" muskie from pineview. Now that's a fish.[shocked]
I hope one of you luck muskie boys (with a steel leader) has a chance to land that mouth of teeth. That's see 73" = 6' 1" - that longer than me - WOW... TROPHY IN THE POND.... [signature]

Does anyone know more about this? Did they trap it and RELEASE it, or was it the victim of a gill netting or electroshock and not returned to the water? A monster like that, I hope it's still there! I've wanted to go up to Pineview and fish for muskies since I was like 17, but never went. It's a bit of a drive from Provo, and school keeps me pretty busy. Where are my priorities?! [crazy]

No don't think I've seen that one. I'll have to check it out. I had heard that just before ice (late fall) and just after ice is the best time to fish for them When the edges are a bit warmer then the sides. I know this time of year they do go a bit deeper as the edges are just a bit to hot for them. Thanks for the info on the online mag. If you have a link that would help a lot. In the meantime I'll be looking for it
