Adam and Rachel Savicz, who help run the Illinois Fishing Addicts Facebook page, tag teamed on a tiger muskie, caught Friday night on Crystal Lake on a bluegill.

``Our first one measured 38 inches,’’ Adam messaged.

Tiger muskies are a cross of northern pike and muskie. They are/were stacked in Crystal Lake.
