Contender for 60 lb muskie.

[Roy]

This fish was caught a coupla weeks ago, two I think, not too far from here. The fish is 58"x26". She's a brute but she still only weighed probably not more than 52 lbs. If the man want's to come online to talk about it, that'll be fine. I just had permission to post it. It still is a nice fish.....they really are rare and so, 60 pounders are not something we could see very often if at all. If this one ate like a champ all through the fall, she'd still never hit 60 lbs but she'd be a contender.

 

 

There's only one other guy who I know got a 58" and that was Steve Bedarf a coupla years back...it was called the "day of the giants". They got a 57" and a 58" within 30 minutes of each other. Hope you enjoy the pic and thanks for reading.

Man is that ever a nice fish.

[Sandbag]

Man...when you look at the size of the anglers head and compare it to the fish, it is truly amazing how big that fish is.

 

Thanks for posting that Roy. I hope he does come online and tell the story.

 

Cheers

[Leecher]

That brute is a real beaut

[darsky]

from what I heard he was well deserved of this fish. A very considerate fishing partner-great for him and the guy who put him on her.

[Joey]

I wonder if the low water temps this year have anything to do with all these big 'skis showing up? You know, feeding a little more regularily on prime spots? Thats one heck of a fish, for sure!

[Wild]

Yeah what's with all the huge muskies... is this going to be a trend here?

Any bets on the age of this monster?

[tonka-toy]

oh yeah!!! oh hell yeah!!!

[mistyriver1]

That's a beauty Roy for sure. Nice markings and clean fish. Thanks for posting it.

[BillM]

Holy crap!!!! Did Mr.Thorpe put him onto that fish?

[ccmtcanada]

Man oh man....the stuff of dreams!!!

 

Amazing fish!

[Mr. Follow]

I know I'm going to get blasted for this and that truly is an amazing fish But it's no way a 60 lb fish 50 lbs sure But I think that Muskiemikes fish was heavier and if that is a 60 lb fish then board member GB's fish from 2003 is a 70 lber and I know exactly what his fish weight.

 

Don't get me wrong that is an amazing fish and a fish of a life time but let's not inflate it let's just enjoy it.

[Roy]

Mr. Follow, there's no reason for anyone to "blast" you. You might want to re-read my original post though.

[Guest gbfisher]

I think thats Roys point here...that a 60 lber would be hard to come by.................................and are ya sure about GB's fish wieght?

[Mr. Follow]

Hey Roy I did miss that first line where you said it was probably not more then 52 lbs sorry about that.

 

GBfisher I do know what GB's fish weighed considering I was the one that netted it and weighted it when he caught it.
