Thank you! I used some silver nail paint and patched it up! After being in that toothy mouth though its gonna need some more patches!

Went out for my first tiger musky trip of the year and at the first spot of the day, on the 5th or 6th cast, this tiger shot out of the depths and engulfed the bait. About halfway through my retrieve, around 10ft from the boat, I saw this musky barreling at my bait and before I could react, I saw its mouth open and my bait disappeared. After a wild fight with multiple jumps, the fish barely fit into the net. Once the fish was in the net I noticed the back treble was hung up in its gills. After some quick plier work and safely securing the fish in the net, got a quick pic and it returned to its home with a strong release. 64410967433__86EA246F-C1B6-40B9-BC3B-C77911EF45CD.HEIC

I am not familiar with the Rogue 807 or 808 but I would recommend the NFC 807 for 4-8oz and the 808 as 6-10oz.

The Edge 808 is on a different blank than the NFC 808. The Edge 808 is great for 2.5-6.5oz. I don't have much experience with the NFC 808 but I know it is much heavier.

Thanks! @Jace D

Thank you! @Csweitzer I look forward to it Those are two incredible fish. Either one would break my pb!

I think 12 pm is noon. "The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language states "By convention, 12 AM denotes midnight and 12 PM denotes noon.

Hold up. I was just rereading the rules of the tournament. Because those fish came in after 12:00 pm does that mean I've got it? @swimbaitunderground Sorry for the confusion, first SU tournament.

Oh man! Congrats! That's a giant. I knew my fish wouldn't hold for long. I'm happy to be beaten by a fisherman of your caliber. Props to you. I'll get em next time

He is and has only made one post on the forum. It was a hefty post in the middle of some beef between Mickie (Mickey?) from 316 and another guy. I believe it was back in 2011. In the post Matt was very well spoken and set the record straight between a lot of misinformation. It's an interesting post and a wild thread. Lots of angry dudes. If you want to find it, look up Matt Allen and you should see his post on his profile.

I would agree with the guys saying it would be cool to see an enthusiast swimbait video. In that video Matt mentioned how he loves big custom baits and it would be sweet to see his collection of super hard to find stuff. Maybe this holiday season they'll do a high end swimbait buyers guide.

Here’s the pic of that fish.
