You pros really know what your talking about when it comes to Muskies. I just wondered what has to be the biggest fish you or your client has landed?

My longuest fish was caught a few years ago and measured 55 X 26 caught trolling a homemade bait for the second time.

As for clients I had a client last October 2000 land 2 muskies measuring 52 inches the same day a skinny one under 30 lbs casting in the am and a fat 38 pounder trolling in the afternoon.

This year my best was 53.5 X 23.5 and Many clients landed 50+ fish with a 51 incher taking top honors.[:sun:]

Esox 14,its not that we know what we are talking about.Its the time we spend on the water gathering info leading to our personal theories wich lead us to success.Sharing learning experiences is what its all about.
Something we all enjoy.

The longuest non promotional fish we have boated is 57 inches.(certain clients wish to remain anonymous)A policy in my service we provide.

The heaviest verified fish is 51.08 pounds by Kim Presbrey.

Last season the longest fish's were 2 54 inchers.We released a total of 14 over 50 inches.

Personaly,I dont get to bring in many in a season,handing the rod is customery with friends and clients whether trolling or casting.
Although I did land a 54 incher last year,my good friend Andy mistook it for a 48 incher from a distance and realised his mistake when the fish was hanging on the gaff.

The biggest fish to come to my boat for a short visit was the 54" X 28 1/2" girth 52 lber caught by Client Pat Fox.This past season the biggest was a 52" X 25 1/2" girth Fattie and three others over 50 inches.2001 had warmer tempratures then most falls here and everything was caught toward the last two weeks of November.We are paying now for that warm Lake Erie temprature--72 inches of snow in 4 days.

My largest was the FORMER picture on the front page of this site a healthy 52 5/8" fish (topwater)...We measured the girth at 23" just behind the front fins. Earlier in the year I also boated a 51 x 20 (Bucktail).

Prior to this year my largest was 48"

Largest client fish was 46" (The guys first muskie trip 20 minutes into the day he gets a 46")

I hope to log alot more client hours this year and only catch fish for myself in tournaments. Notice I said hope.
