FL-18 transducer - - - Musky bait ?

[scraper]

Had a very strange thing happen this morning while fishing for perch.While i was sitting on my bucket watching the vexilar and waiting for more perch to show, suddenly afish hit the transducer,startled the dump out of me.I pulled up the transducer and checked for damage, and it seemed to be fine,
so i put it back in the hole.About a half hour later, the fish tried to hit it again. This time when i pulled the transducer up, i could see the fish,it was a very large Musky.
Not wanting to use my Vexilar for Musky bait
and not having any heavy duty fishing gear with me I decided to call it a day.
Has anyone ever had anything like this happen
before?

Ironically,

I was fishing last winter in Manitoba, where a friend had his Ducer attacked by a Jack!!!!

At first he couldn't figure out why his ducer float was bobbing up and down until he pulled his line out and peered down his hole. He saw a Northen grabbing hold of his transducer!
Might have to make transducers look like a smaller spearing decoy, but hook some trebles on. Can you imagine, I have heard stories of Aqua View lenses being attacked as well!!

Play that back in slow mo!!!

I was fishing on Winnie last year with a VistaCam. I was watching the camera and all of a sudden the camera started to move. I didn't know what was goin on, it then started to spin and there was a huge northern eye right in fron of the camera lens. He started to move away from it and the a couple minuites later he came out of no where and just slammed the camera again. I didn't want to loose my camera so I pulled it up. The VistaCam's camera is long and silver I suppose it looks like a fish to them.
