Not Muskie but gotta see this fish , What a Pig

The cool part is that the fish is still alive and will be on display at Cabela's then released back into the river later this year

Not that I care much about a catfish, BUT, it's very cool that the fish has been kept alive.

It kind of brings credibility to some of the possible record Muskies that have been caught. One argument I always hear is, "He's not even straining to hold that 60 pound fish." Well, this guy is holding a 120 pound fish, and he's not straining.

Just something to think about next time we see a picture of a big muskie.

Great point setme31.
I dont often strain while holding my 80 and 90lb nephews in my arms either. Some people just dont get it.
Good Fishing y'all
