Is it my imagination, or are much bigger muskies being puled out of Wisconsin lakes and rivers?

Don't forget there's a lot of brats, cheese, and jerkys In Wisconsin. I know I gained 15-20 lbs everytime I fish in Wisconsin for weekend..

i think they important point is that they are NOT being "pulled out" anymore...let the fish go and guess what? they keep growing...

Didn't you hear most of the metro lakes don't even have enough fish left to even see a fish.

Wisconsin fish may be fatter and more fun, but they don't appreciate art, culture and alternative lifestyles like the more sophisticated Minnesota fish.

The Superbowl was won in Wisconsin too... a couple times to boot.

YOU THINK YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME BECAUSE YOU HAVE AARON RODGERS!?

MN fish are bigger than WI fish because there are more fish to get more bigger... it's really got nothing to do with football.

I wouldn't even come remotely close to talking Minnesota football vs. Wisconsin football. The state to the west of the Great State is absolutely embarrassing in all things football. I almost feel bad for the goophs and queens. Almost.

Wisconsin will be the home of Gander Mtn's new beta store, Gander Guns. No fishing no camping. All the fun that a guy can have with 4000 weapons. Yes, 4000.

Don't give then pancakes, Steve! If you feed them it just leads to more excrement. Perhaps this will help:

Ive never musky fished in minnesota, but Ive seen some absolute ginormous slobosauruses in this fine state of wisconsin. I think theres big fish here. I think theres big fish in MN, probably in New York too. Canada might have some big ones as well.
Every states fish will continue to grow to scary size if they dont get taken out of their homes. period. It has started, its shown great improvement, and surely, we are all seeing the benefits of letting them go. I think the future is bright for this sport in the state of sconnie , heck, we might just bring home yet another championship, or superbowl, whichever comes first

It seems there are quite a few Wisconsin guys on this thread, so I hope you don't mind I've dumbed down my "forum speak" accordingly. Keep it real, homes.

It's OK, most of us Sconnies don't automatically assume you can't communicate clearly, for us it's fine to be up to your potential. Proceed.

On a slightly related and much more unfortunate note, I hear that the bunny died. (the old timers will get that one, but the young guys probably won't)
