      Oh, I would think so. She is a beautiful fish and thanks for releasing her!!

      Unfortunately no length I was more concerned about release and I didn't have a tape handy didn't have time to think of how to be creative on measuring her. ...more I think its fair to call her in the 4 ft range.

      Nice, did you get a length?

      really shouldnt be fishing for them prior to season open (may 27th) and this wasnt my intentions to catch but small lures produce in states that dont have a closed ...more season.outside edges of spawning grounds are places to try. Musky can tuck in tight to just a foot or 2 of water in early season. Always catch and release and best of luck Ed.

      Tied for first place in the chapter 16 tournament with this fish. She has a really pretty paint job and a very healthy gal. No doubt she will be a heavy weight come ...more fall

      Erin that's awesome !!! Ill give it a try. thanks so much for the tip !
    4. Erin Black 0
      I fixed the pic with a photo editor was going to post it here for you but no option to comment pics. All I did was download the app Line Camera or "AILLIS" ...more and the last filter is a negative but when used with your pic it flips it back to natural color. Hope this helps! Great fish! :)

      Thanks Henry. Not on purpose was a little disappointed I have no natural photos of her

      Henry I will have to look into that I just bought a drifter net it's huge and it cost me 160 bucks I hope that helps the release process. We were using a very ...more old school net it was large enough but far outdated.
    2. Henry Pylkas 0
      Brandon, nice to hear that 4ft mark getting caught more than once. You might want to consider a cradle and gloves to help with those big fish. Glad to hear you ...more releasing them but cradle is worth the money!! I fish for trophy Northerns & the cradle saves you from injuries as well.
    3. Brandon Dorman 0
      Kurt Weingart this is the 4th 4ft musky we put in the boat this season. My cousin is handling this one and it was his first musky ever. I told him it doesn't ...more get much sweeter than this in chautauqua lake.
    4. Brandon Dorman 0
      Jerry Kolling this fish did swim off the rough handling was due to an unfortunate turn of a event i snagged my net into all my lures and had to net this fish by ...more hand. i had to quickly pull hooks to get her back in the water. she released decent although I had hoped for better.
    5. Jerry Kolling 0
      Doesn't look like it survived the rough handling. Nice fish though.
