I just want to share with you guys our nice 51 inches Musky.
I went out Saturday and got two muskies and two pike.
Went back this morning with another Partner and I took one musky and one pike.
After, I lend my Spinner bait to my Partner who had not had a bite yet. After maybe two hours he got this huge musky.
It was taken trolling over weed in 5 feet of water.

The two photos are the same fish. (We took another musky 40'' and one Pike 30'' and one small Silver Pike.)
Yes, the fish did swim away after 15 minutes holding him in the cradle. The fight was short, maybe 3 or 4 minutes of hard battle arround the boat with some good sprint.
It was awsome!

I can't even imagine the rush of bringing up a beauty like that.
Amazing outing and you've made me want to go on a muskie 'hunt' even more now!

Would happily hoist a beauty muskie like that one. Probably snap more than one picture too. Great catch!
