I was fishing at the whirl pool by Niagara Falls today, and i hooked onto a huuuuuge muskie about 50"+

when the muskie was like 5 feet away from me, i was about to net it, and the fish spit out the lure..

i was using a Jointed Rapala with 15lb line mono with steel leader

bad day for me, i also had a big trout but it also spat out the lure

Sounds like new hooks or a different rod may be in order.

New hooks doesn't equal good hooks. Lots of companies put cheap hooks on their baits to keep them at a certain price point. Very few baits that I buy don't get upgraded hooks right out of the package and Rapalas certainly aren't going to keep the hooks they come with on the rare occasion I buy a Rapala bait.

i changed most of my hooks with very good owner, camakatsu and other brands.But pikes you can easy loose, because they shaking often the hook away. Trout the same.
