I stopped here at Bonney Lake today during my lunch break from 11:30-12:30 and fished a little spinner off the causeway on 192 (I think). I wasn't expecting much, just wanted to pass the time, after I got quite a few hits, I hooked a really small LMB and tossed it back. Then I moved just a little bit and caught a 12" baby Pike or Musky. Not sure exactly what it was, I have a pic I will post later, but from my research, both the Pike and Musky look very similar as babies... Anyone know what's in there? It's the first time I'd been there, but it certainly wont be the last! Promising, even from shore.

Like BucketMouthCatcher says you must have been over by Tapps and probably on the inlet side. The WDFW, with some help from this state's two tigermuskie clubs, Muskie's Inc. Chapter 57 TIGERPAC and Cascade Musky Association, placed a bunch of baby tigers in Tapps a couple months ago. You must have caught one of those babys that has a long ways to grow before it is keepable at 50". If you are interested in finding out more about the tigers Chapter 57 sponsors the Muskie forum on this great website and there is a wealth of info there.
