BIG Muskie Lake Vermilion!!!!!!!!

[401TE]

401, the more I think about what you said, the more I agree, 50x21 or 22 and it just ate a meal. The way the guy is holding it threw me off. I still want to give that fish a couple extra inches in length..

John, I may be skewed after spending most of last fall on Mille Lacs.. Every 48+ fish we saw was 23-28 girth. And I know Hammernick put (can't remember exactly) but like 20-30 fish over 40lbs in the boat. Opener and this summer should put me back in check.

That being said, I would say it is more common than ever in MN to catch 50+x23+

No worries, I just wanted to give the guy my honest opinion. It's always tough to tell exactly from pics, but I've put the tape on enough big muskies to know girth is often overestimated on the internet. I'd agree with that last statement on certain lakes, especially at certain times of year.
