Arrived at tapps after work about 6:00 and I saw a small tigarmusky chasing bait fish around I thought that someone must have transported it from Mayfield to tapps and released it here, that was until I started to see hundreds of them and caught many so many that you couldn't hardly bass fish once these fish get a little bigger you won't be able to bass fish here at all since these fish eat every thing and will easily bite off any mono fishing line while bass fishing I have fished tapps for 20+yrs its and incredible secret bass lake for monster largemouth and large numbers of smallmouth. The lake has a great forage bait fish population because of the number of carp in the lake. There are also several other forage fish in this lake for the bass and NONE of them are over populated in any way. The lakes largemouths numbers have declined as the smallmouth have increased. I have never seen a biologist on or at tapps and would like to know why they would put tigarmusky in this lake.It
makes no since they wont get big enough to eat the adult egg laying carp, only the small ones. The food for the bass ??? Carp are in Sammamish- is that lake the next to get tigarmusky? I have fished Mayfield for musky for yrs and even held a record one for a while. I do like catching them but unlike Mayfield, tapps is not infested with bad fish to get rid of . Has anyone heard about this before they stocked them? I would like to hear any info about this and your input about tapps. please feel free to e-mail me with comment or questions. thx.
