Last day of fishing Balsam for a two week vacation, some good moments and skunk outs. But this Muskie my bud caught this morning was the absolutel highlight! I wish we weighed and measured it…but felt it was more important to get this beauty back in the water for one of you lads to get a shot at.
Enjoy this picture!

Best guess? 4.5 to 5 feet and ~35-40 pounds. My buddy holding it is 6 feet tall. It was a beauty! This post has been edited by Heyjeprox on Aug 11, 2024 - 07:05 am

Awesome, and even more impressive was your thoughtfullness in a quick release and keeping it alive than measurements and more bragging rights.
