The same musky caught by me and Todd Williams (a.k.a. fishcrazed) 3 years apart and within 50yds of each other! Mine was 45" in 2013 and his was 47" in 2016. Lake of the woods Ontario. This is another great example of why we CPR (catch, photo, release). I wonder how many other anglers have enjoyed coming in contact with her through the years? Pretty cool, huh?

September of 2012 a buddy a mine caught a four footer with a bent back he'd nicknamed " brokeback". I caught this fish from the same spot this June at 51". Very old deformed Wisconsin fish that has survived in a high pressure environment.

That is just a very, very beautiful, clean, healthy looking fish. Would be great to see a picture of her at 50 inches in a couple of years!

Everyone knows that it's not true! Every released fish dies. Just ask the old timer who told me that I'm kidding myself releasing them again just to die, even though I tried telling him that I caught the same one 3 times over 2 years. Ha! Nice looking fish!

It's always nice when they comeback to visit. I took a guy out for his first time muskie fishing in 08. He put in 4 hrs and landed a 51"er. Edging my 50"er earlier in the year. 5 years later I got him back with the same fish he caught when it was 54". Not even 100 yds apart.
