Giant Tiger Musky!

It sounds like this fish was caught in the St. Louis River. It looks like it would have been a state record but it was released. What a pig!

Holy Carp, hopefully those eggs hatch and grow up.

It's a beast of a fish that was released. This one was around 49lbs....2lbs shy of the WORLD record. Would have smashed the MN record of 36lbs....I think. There is a 50" minimum on the St. Louis...this one was 48.5" I think. And those aren't eggs...my guess is a stomach full of smelt. I don't think you could get a girth like that by feeding on suckers and walleyes.

Here is the story from the Northland Musky Adventures site.....

Thought I would share this with you guys....

This weekend Charlie Gallagher & his Friends/family came up to the north country
to Muskie fish with me and caught one of the largest Tiger muskies ever caught
in the world.

It was 48.5" long, with a 28.5" girth and weighed 49lbs, Charlie released her.
The world record Tiger muskie was caught in 1919 in WI it was 51" , 51lbs.

The MN state record is 36lbs, so this blows the Mn record out of water. It was
caught in MN on the St Louis River, caught on a Top raider -top water bait.
Truly a amazing fish, I was just
happy to be there to witness Charlie catch such a amazing creature and release
her to get bigger, HAHAHA LOL
I think she had a diet of those 10lb mallards and geese, or ore boats.....


Congratulations Charlie, a True Giant, & she is still swimming
