Lost Musky on Elephant lake

Just sharing a quick story. 

 

I was up your Elephant lake last weekend.  The bite was slow of how hot it was. Managed a few pike and bass.

 

At sunset on Sat we started to cast towards a dead fallen tree. Just for the heck of it, I put a 9" deep diving bomber on thinking "Ah, what the hell". Well, first cast I felt that great feeling of snagging bottom, but this time, the bottom moved, and pulled!!!

I told my buddy right away to get the net. This was a fish, a big one and to be ready. About 30 yards from the boat, I saw the side of the musky, twisting and fighting..... Then... snap!  Gone, lost forever!

Stupid me got snagged earlier in the day on some weeds, so I tightened drag and pulled it free, forgetting to loosen the drag back off!

We tried again for an hour and the following day with no luck. 

Sucks to be me!
