Is this a tiger, or a pure strain muskie?
The tail doesn't look as rounded as it should... but i'd say a tiger.
Looks just like a big tiger
My money says tiger, based on the stripes.
Im not an expert but would have to say Tiger, I have an authority in the field I could forward the pic to if you need me too, let me know.

I'm gussing the other way, that it is a pure-strain in the barred phase.
:EDIT:
I just wanted to add my explanation that the tail fin, although we don't see the best shot, looks to pointy to be a tiger.
