Sweet OFC made the article!!!!

 

To bad it was about people being jackasses and wasting 6 pages arguing about the size of the fish...

[bigfish1965]

Wow...stared at that pic for a long time. What a beast!!!

[Roy]

That telephone interview is certainly a MUST LISTEN! It's as good as video. Thank you to all who put it together and a special thanks to Dale MacNair for his generosity in letting everyone share his spectacular event.

 

Edit: I just put a post-it note over my avatar.

Great story

Thanks Ron.

[SlowPoke]

Thanks for posting Ron!

World record or not, who really cares? It's so nice to see a fish that size go back into the water.

It was a shame to see the skeptics spewing and the begrudging bloviating.

I bet I will have to listen to it many times over as I would get distracted when Dale was talking I would be thinking of that big girl on the end of my line and then realize that I was just listening to a story what a great recording.

Fantastic story, thanks for posting!

[glen]

Thanks Ron. I like the interview.

[lew]

Excellent interview and you could hear the excitement in his voice as he re-lived the fight.

 

Sounds like their gonna have the reproduction done fairly fast and seeing as Dale lives in Ontario, I wonder if there's any chance he'll have it at the Musky Odyssey in April ??

[Handlebarz]

Lew I bet he will have it there at the MCI booth that will bring alot of people over and be great to here the story all day long. I just hope he does not do the carp show in Ottawa if its the same weekend that would really suck if I find out I will let ya know here

What would be the weight on that girl?

[ehg]

That is a real good story of the thought process involved in catching that historical muskie.

Caught on the 10 inch Jake no less!

Thanks for providing this.

[lew]

What would be the weight on that girl?

 

There's a few different calculators around and they all put that pretty lady well over 60 pounds, but nobody will ever know for sure.

 

VERY BIG is probably close enough
