Damn that's massive. I just showed my GF and she says to me "How is he holding that up?? It must be photoshopped!"... I told her to look at buddies arms and then ask that question again lol

What a monster!?! Someone caught Michigan's version of Nessie!:D

The guy that caught it doesn't own a car(boats to work) and has put 25,000 miles on his boat in the last 7 years fishing almost every day.

He'd be on iboats posting once in a while but he's always fishing:)

Good thread Terry:cool:

That sure is a very nice fish.
I wonder why muskies in Michigan are smaller than the Lake Ontario ones.The NY record for muskie is 69 pounds and until last year the minimal size for muskie in lake Ontario was 54 inch.This year it was lowered to 48 inch.

In Michigan we catch all of them before they can grow any larger:p

But seriously...69lbs? Now that is a whopper of a musky:D

According to the Torch Lake Herald, he caught it on a yellow duck lure.
