Let's see some pics of nutritionally challenged skies we've caught. This one went 41" and I am not sure it weighed much over 12lbs.

I know the first one is small to begin with (32.5"), but the bottom pic is a 30-31" from Canada that looks like it just ate!

After hearing everything about growth rates of Minnesota fish versus Wisconsin muskies, and being that it is a Minnesota fish, it is skinny because it is only 3 months old!

I caught a 36" a few years ago that was shaped almost like a baseball bat. Beyond skinny. Some jerkoff clipped one of it's lower "side" fins completely off. prolly to mark that it had been caught before. other than the complete lack of girth it seemed healthy and the area where it's fin used to be was healing nicely. It hit and faught like a healthy fish.

I don't know about you guys, but here where I live we call those super skinny anorectic fish "ties", since they're shaped like a tie (long and skinny). LOL!

This one sure looked good at the time, though (also an entry to the MuskieFirst hat contest). m

Two fish caught on the same spot ten minutes apart. 45"er, decent girth, the 49" not so decent....sorry cant find the 45"er. Cool to boat 94" combined on the same spot in 10 minutes.
