Normally when a person says 53 inches and around 40 pounds, they seem to be stretching it but this ones no stretch.

That is a beast of a fish. If you read all the way through the thread the guy that posted it says it came from MH.

Great fish.

A big muskie is such an awesome looking beast. Glad he let it go. You can always have a replica made if you take measurements. Unless there is money in it so I can buy more tackle, who cares about the record.  Makes me want to go muskie fishing even more.

What a beast.  I seem to notice a trend of really GIANT muskies being caught at night.  Check out the bottom three summer caught fish on the New.

 I'm definitely gonna give this a try on some VA camping trips this summer.
It's one thing to see a picture, but I can't imagine how wicked that fish looks thrashing the water while shining a headlamp in the fog of night.
