Just When You Thought It Was Safe...

This is a perennial news event in this part of the world but this has
to be the most serious injuries I've ever heard of from this type of
encounter with this species of fish.

I was just talking to someone here about this very thing a week ago. He had
never heard of anyone being bitten by a muskie. Seems to me we get about
one of these per year on average. I've never paid close attention, but it
seems to me this is unusual in that the victim was standing in the water
rather than swimming or floating.

Any idea of what the typical attack pattern is.....or if there is one?
