Location: Mpls/St Paul Minnesota		Here is a 49 3/4 I caught over the weekend on a Medussa and it had a lamprey on it. You can see it hanging down my left arm. I attached a couple of pictures. Anyone else come across this?

Location: Northern IL		They are extremely common in LSC and the Detroit river, we have noticed that they are not found as often on fish under 40".

Location: Mpls/St Paul Minnesota		It was on the St Croix. I was not aware they were in there, but the DNR said they are natural in the river

All large Muskies ( and most pikes) I ever caught on Ottawa River did have more than one lamprey attached
