That must have been a blast, what neat fish they are Was a skin mount an option?
I wouldn't have...I believe you get one Muskie tag for the season...I have the measurements off the 49"er if I decide to do a replica...I'm gonna go back and get one over 50"...
Some nice looking Muskies Hunt. Great Job.I fished for Musky near Cape Vincent last fall with 2 friends and I was lucky and caught a freshwater game fish of a lifetime! ...and earned a beautiful Mike Ringer Print from the "Save the River" foundation for documenting a successful catch and release of a legal sized NY State Musky which is at 54 inches now. It was a super thrill and rush to watch her thrashing on the surface right after the strike then completely clear the water on an awesome jump right near the boat ! Then the biggest thrill as we watched her swim down and away on the release after a brief revival .We taped her at 56 inches, Bruce said "50 pounder + for sure"....which put her in the top 3 or 4 biggest he and his wife have ever landed in 40 years of Musky fishing.Keep at it HUnt and I hope you can get that 50 incher , or bigger, next time out !Good luck to you !
Good going Bruce. Wife and I have skipped the past few years. Kinda not the same with out our kids involved. Gotta get back to it. Always a fun time.
