[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 2]I recomend that you go Medium-Heavy or Heavy rods on those muskys. I recomend 20 lb main line and 17-20 lb flurocarbon leader or steel leader. As big and ugly as they are, remember that they are still quite fragile. It's easy to kill them with a combination of playing them too long, banging themselves in the boat, bending them in a too small net, and keepin them out of the water too long. Any one of those things can be the end of a good tiger's life. I suggest that you don't play them too long. Get them in to the boat, get a picture and get them revived and released asap. Don't spend too long playing them. That's precious energy that they use up being played.[/size][/font]
