Here's a pic of the 50 x 22 River Monster my buddy Joe got on the North Branch. First time Musky fishing for him and first 50 I have ever seen or netted! I joked with him at work, telling him I'd give him a musky picture for Christmas! I never expected one like this! Boy what a sight to see such a giant in our home water!

Here's your answer. Joe releasing the beast......

I'm not sure how you measured the girth but 22 looks conservative to me.

Congrats on joining the 50 inch club.

Hey beagler (Chet), don't be hatin' on Joe that he joined the 50" club. You need an extreme net man like me. I mean just think, if you didn't post all of my hotspots I took you to and kill everything you catch, that might have been you holding that fish! That fish is still alive because Joe's a true sportsman. Joe, shamu the musky, and I wish you a Merry Christmas too!

That fish would make some good eat'n Rich.

Happy New Year by the way! See you in prison.

Showin your true colors Chet. My photo albums are full of colorful alive fish, not stiff grey ones like the ones you hold in yours. Glad your showin' your true colors on huntingpa. Is it because you feel like more of a man to hold a dead fish? Wait...I know....It's because you don't have anyone to go fishing with and take the picture! A..Ha..Ha!

VERY NICE susky fish! Congrats on the trophy of a lifetime! That is my lifetime local goal........50" susky musky, biggest is 47.5.

MORE IMPORTANTLY, THANK YOU FOR RELEASING HER. I hope the next time you see her she is 55"!!!!!!!!
