Tiger Muskies' Rock!

This beast was caught at Newton Reservoir using a rattle trap (lipless crankbait). He measured in at over 38 inches long, and over 12 pounds!


Here's a closer image of the same fish, displaying the Tiger Muskie's razor sharp teeth.

This was one of my first Smallies from Jordanelle Reservoir. This one weighed in at over 4 pounds! Smallies put up a great fight as well!

Tiger Muskie, tape two.

Tiger Muskie swimmin' around.

Willard Bay

Willard Bay Wiper,
This is a Wiper, which is a cross breed between a white bass, and a striper. This one was over 20 inches long, and weighed over 4 pounds.







While trying to catch either Walleye or Wiper, we caught this beautiful Smallmouth Bass. I didn't know that Willard Bay had Smallmouth Bass in it, but as you can see, I was pleasantly surprised! This smally weighed in at 4 pounds, and was over 18 inches long!


19 inch Walleye

Tiger Infested Waters

This was my first trip to Tiger infested waters! Newton Reservoir is one of 4 bodies of water in Utah that has Tiger Muskie. I went to Newton Reservoir on July 4th, in hopes to catch Largemouth Bass, and maybe an occasional Tiger Muskie, but I left that day having caught 3 Tiger Muskie, and not a single Largemouth! Since the Tiger Muskie are a much larger fish and may be considered by some to be a once in a life time catch, lets just say that I wasn't disappointed to have caught 3 of them. This one weighed over 10 pounds, and was probably between 30 and 35 inches long. I caught one which was probably over 20 pounds, but it managed to spit the hook right as I was about to net the fish.
