Was fishing up North in the French River with one of my best friends. We were in a bay called Crombie Bay. We were throwing buzz-baits to catch some pike for dinner. We ended up in the back of the bay casting towards this dock. The pike we were catching all had bite marks & chunks torn out of them. My bud said there is something big in here that is eating or biting these Pike. I didn't think anything of it at the time. He hooked & landed a nice pike as I continued to cast at that dock. After about 7 or 8 casts I was thinking of changing directions when all of a sudden the water just exploded at my buzz-bail. My rod was doubled & out of the shallows came this huge fish. Well never catching a musky before,I had no clue as to what it was !! I asked my Friend,What the heck is that ??? He said Oh My God,you have on your first Musky. I was thrilled beyond belief !!! So now the fight is on. She was tearing line off my drag & heading for deeper water !! My friend said If you can,steer her away from the deep water !! Try to keep her here !! Luckily I was able to do that,Thank God for Power Pro !!! We had it out for about 10 min when I was able to finally get her along side the boat. I kept thinking "don't loose her,Don't loose her". Finally we got her in the net & I was elated beyond anything I have ever felt. (as far as fishing goes). She was a beauty & we got some pics & had to get her back in the water because of Canada's slot limit.She went a little over 40 inches.I Was VERY happy to say,she swam off but not before soaking me with a huge splash !!! I will never forget that day & that trip !!!
