Sandbag Posted October 31, 2009 Report Posted October 31, 2009 Giant musky caught in Lake St. Clair Posted By BOB BOUGHNER, THE DAILY NEWS Posted 8 hours ago A new, all-time record breaking muskellunge was weighed in yesterday at Cove Marina. The big fish, which was later released back into Lake St. Clair, tipped the scales at 48.5 pounds. The musky was caught by Tony Jaros of St. Clair Shores. Jim Fleming of Wyoming, a fishing charter captain and director of the Michigan-Ontario Muskie Club, was in charge of the weigh-in at Cove Marina. "It was a monster,'' he said. "It set an all-time record for the lake.'' Fleming said several giant muskie have been boated in the past week, weighed and released. Cheers Craig

Guest ThisPlaceSucks Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 how exactly do you transport a large fish back to a marina, weigh it, then still release it healthy?

jediangler Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 There was a 48" caught right in the river last Monday by a guy in a kayak. It was his first musky.
Handlebarz Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 This fish was caught out in the lake a few miles from the river transported back to the marina (in a huge live well) to be weighed on cert scale then released again from what they told me she went away every nice. I was not there but talked to one of the guys who was there yesterday.
