Tiger musky in Bear river? - BagABigOne - 07-31-2025

I checked the stocking report and noticed that the DWR planted Tiger musky in the Bear river in Cache county. Does anyone know what section? I'm assuming Cutler Reservoir. This should make skunked again happy.

That's what they call them in Cutler, it's pretty mucky..... Hey Rod, it's up at Ballard's bridge where they planted them, had some of the youngmen in the ward fishing and caught a couple the day or day after they planted them and asked what they were... I'm not sure how to think about that addition, will be fun if they don't eat too many of my crappie... Hopefully they like carp and mudcats or bullheads more than gills and crappie but I guess we'll see over time.. Interesting for sure... I have heard of folks catching them before out of Cutler, we suspected it was from Newton's fish that washed over the spill in the spring run off, but now there will be a local population to try I guess... Wonder if I dare tube barefoot anymore, hate to lose a toe... Later J

Thanks for the info Jeff I hope they thin down the carp so the crappie can grow bigger.

Be interesting to see how far they spread out.... going to be a change anyway... Later J
