Title: Muskie Decanter
Post by: Steve H on March 15, 2012, 08:09:02 PM

Jim Beam issued these in 1971 for the Wisconsin's State fish. Lisa's Granddad had one (not fully intact, the bourbon is gone). I don't really care about the collector aspect, I just like the decanter, the family history (he loved to fish) and preserving some history.

Enjoy.

Steve you need to refill it with spirits and every trip you that land a Musky come home a pour a drink.

Keep in mind if luck with these critters is anything like mine you might not even get a snort for awhile. ;D

Cool keepsake!
