Kerry Posted October 19, 2009 Report Posted October 19, 2009 Sparrow may well be a small cottage type lake but it is part of the severn river system and that level alone has miles of water that can easily grow bad boys to that size.Next time you are in Port Stanton take a look at the mount in the general store by the big dock.It came from straight out front.It was a small one according to the original store owner who got it from the fella who caught it years ago.

NAW Posted October 19, 2009 Report Posted October 19, 2009 I cought my first and only Ski on Sparrow this spring. When does that lake turn over?
misfish Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 (edited) Easy there fellas. Matt doesnt Bull. Looking forward to seeing the pics Matt. Edited October 20, 2009 by misfish
Dozer Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 42 pound 'ski... real story, friend fished the tourney.
Guest Johnny Bass Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 I automatically figured that the fish broke the four rods thrashing in the boat. I've seen big Musky there.Its more than believeable. No wonder Sparrow lake is a tough lake. With big musky like that swimming around. I'd like to see the pic.
Mattitude Posted October 20, 2009 Author Report Posted October 20, 2009 And here we go. Looks big to me.
Guest ThisPlaceSucks Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 what a monster! that's just an unreal fish. too bad they couldn't have released it...
wuchikubo Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 Very nice Matt, congrats on the very nice 'ski.
backbay Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 Big friggin' fish: too bad it didn't live, absolutely, but wow! Keeping it for a skin mount, I hope!
mojobass Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 That is a monster fish, don't whoever bashed him feel just a little bad now? Haha. Even if it didn't break 4 four rods, he sure wasn't lying about it being heavy.
discophish Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 That thing would have hauled me into the water and had me for breakfast! Dang thing would have put my cigarette out too! Hmmm, wait a sec, that's a toss up.
jnic Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 that is one huge musky, it is worth ten rods in my books.
Guest Johnny Bass Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 What a massive musky!!!!!I wonder what it was feeding on. I know the world record Musky caught was full of catfish. Since he kept it, I'd be curious to see what is in its stomach.
MCTFisher9120 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 Wow, girth over 28" Check, weight at 50pounds Check, 54" Long Check.. What a giant! MTBF
fishingisliving Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 Good fish for sure! I want one!
bucktail Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 Awesome fish!! One thing I noticed is that this isnt a kawaratha muskie, it has that georgian bay shape and colour to it. I wonder if it came up the lock system. Love the picture with the kid.....its the same size as him!!!!!!! LOL
TC1OZ Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 Thats HUGE! I hate the teaser posts!!! I waited for pictures to post hahaha!
Headhunter Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 Wow, there must be 25 lbs of fillets on that fish! Congrats and thanks for posting the pics! HH
I'mHooked Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 Were they using Shihtzu's or Chihuahua's for bait? I wouldn't let any pets smaller than a German Sheppard swim in that lake!
holdfast Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 (edited) Wow, there must be 25 lbs of fillets on that fish! Congrats and thanks for posting the pics!HH LOL ,Yuk, I think if I had the money it would be a mounter for sure, hanging up somewhere in the Man Cave. Edited October 20, 2009 by holdfast
The Urban Fisherman Posted October 20, 2009 Report Posted October 20, 2009 MY GOD read the post he said died, so they kept it, fish die, and that's a fact of fishing people need to start excepting as soon as I read it I thought maybe the four broken rods were form the fish thrashing around in the boat many people who don't catch a lot of muskie are not equipped to handle them and like most people they miss judge the size of the fish they have caught, they are fishermen and just caught a monster the excitement and lack of anything to compare it to, leads to over estimating ...... I see no problem with questioning a post on things you don't understand or don't seem to make sense, but to just jump on it and accuse is a little much guys And 1 for COMMON SENSE! haha Thanks Terry - you should keep this post in your back pocket...I can think of a few threads in the past that could have used it.... Cheers, Ryan
