Its tiger muskie time

[troubleshootn]

Well Im going to get some tiger muskie fingerlings from the local hatchery
just curious if anyone else has experience with these monsters???

likes to ambush live food grows fast and likes pristine water on the cool side. ive gotten them to take shrimp by taking a small strung fish hook cutting off the curve and leaving the barbed part. pierce the shrimp and swim it around the tank til they hit. usually turning off the room lights and fishing from a distance works best...

 

[actright1]

what hatchery are you getting them from

 

[sbuse]

they like weeds...they also get to around 35-40" generaly speaking, as some do get larger...they can tolerate warmer water then pike or pure stains aswell

Get so top top water cover plants for them to hide in

Ill post some pics as soon as possible, he will be going into a 225. Im getting them from the state hatchery but thats kinda a hush hush deal. Im pretty excited hoping to mix him with some of my larger current natives we shall see.

I would to have one. A tiger muskie can get huge and that is my problem. I have a 210, but I know I would have to euthanize him eventually.
