If you look closely at the mouth you can see my hook in the right side of the mouth and a leader hanging out the left side of the mouth. 20 minutes before I caught her I had the same Musky bite, but the knot broke when I set the hook. Also mice chewed a hole in my net which she swam through on the first attempt, so I had to bring the hole in the net around my rod and reel before I caught make another attempt, without the fish coming off. It was a huge relief when she was finally on shore
