| After looking at the thread of skinny fish, let's go the other direction. Not just heavy fish, let's see fish that are so fat they shouldn't be able to swim! I'll start with this little guy we caught while spring netting with the DNR: It is 31.5" long and weighed 11.7 lbs. Jeff Attachments ----------------  AA Chubby musky.jpg (93KB - 66 downloads) | |||

Posts: 137 | Okay, I'll throw my two cents in here (not that I ever mind showin pics of my fishes), she's not long, only 41", but she sure was a wide muthah. The girl bulldawged like a catfish on me, and I couldn't get her off the bottom of the lake as she kept takin drag. Then when we finally saw her I thought that the cradle we had wouldn't fit around her! She was wider sideways than she was up and down almost and it looked like she had eaten a turtle. She had nice shoulders on her too. Anyway, didn't get a girth on her because she started floppin on me and she was super hard to hold, (Even though the pic don't show it, I'm strainin pretty hard to hold her up....I know...woosy boy, but ah well.) so I dropped her safely over the side of the boat so she didn't hurt herself. Now I can only wonder how wide around....twenty maybe? She seemed at least as wide if not moreso than a twenty inch 45.5 inch fish I caught, but fish always seem bigger in my head. Ah well, I'll never know and I guess it really don't matter. All I know is I hope I get another shot at her in five years especially if she stays on the same high protein diet.
