Holy cow! Now that's what I call a fish! Any more details on what it was
caught on, conditions, time of day, etc?


Sure, it was caught by a gentleman by the name of Tom Gelb. He's a
dedicated muskie hunter who puts in a ton of time on the water. Wisconsin's
muskie season ends on November 31st and that's the day this pig was caught.
He was row-trolling in really cruddy weather when the beast hit.

If I remember correctly, it's the largest muskie caught in Vilas County in
over 20 years. I commend Tom for his catch, I can't think of a nicer guy to
have that fish.
