nice musky today
« on: Feb 07, 2010, 11:27 AM »
i caught this 44 1/2 inch musky this morning, it had someone elses hali
hanging out of its top lip, i took that out and went to remove my hook
and found another half rotted treble in its mouth, this fish broke someone
else off twice, so i did some quick dentistry and a measurement and released
for someone else to catch, you can see the sore on its mouth where the hali
is stuck, must be my lucky day and the fishes also, to get all that junk out of its mouth

Nice catch.  Nice job on the clearing the hooks and the release.  Hopefully the next person will appreciate the catch, too.

Ive only ever caught a little baby pike. man i would love to catch one of those monsters. i was watching a fishing show on saturday and they were catching huge muskie out of a little river or stream that is somewhere near me in ohio.

Great catch and good release.

"Mama said that the alligators are angry cause they got all them teeth and no tooth brush." Or maybe its from having ten years of fishing lures stuck in his mouth... :tipup:
Man.. fishing was way easier when grandpa would take us.
