Steven landed this very thick musky last Thursday......she pounded a DC-10.

Looking forward to some warmer air in order to get our falling water temps headed in the right direction. It has been difficult even catching bass for my boat the past few days!

Reed,

We did not even measure it. The fish was acting funny so I got her wet as soon as we took the photo. The head on that thing was about as wide as I have seen in my boat for a long time. I bet her gut was full of 6-8 inch trout.....

Double 10s put 2 fish in the net tonight on the first night of the full moon, shouldve been 3. They all hit on the 8, and hit in a 45min window between sunset and moonrise. Nothing before and nothing after..

ARK definitely had a hot stick last night...unfortunatly I had to witness it, we couldn't move anything but a nice bass...

I was looking at a few more photos of that fish today (because I though she looked similar to a fish we lost at boatside last November) and noticed the top of her dorsal fin was missing. I do not recall the "lost" November fish having a piece of fin missing but things were moving too quickly to have paid any attention.

Did anyone else notice this?? I wonder if this was done by the PFBC or natural causes??

Yes I noticed what looked like a fin-clip. The reason I did was at first glance I thought the fish looked a lot like the one that Stuart guy caught in December. Then I saw the photo from December and realized they weren't the same fish. Both are beautiful bruisers for sure. That girl does have a fat head. Wow.

Stuart's fish did not have a mark on her...........this fish was rough looking with split tail fins and missing the tip of her dorsal fin plus she was much darker and not as long, IMO.
