That's a pig.  I caught a smallish muskie about that size in NY, in the late fall, with water temps really cold, and it was like reeling in a rock.

The size of the head on that thing.  Wow!

[bhawley76]

are they any good eating?

[Woodchuck]

Pretty decent eating. Pretty bony.

I caught a 24# pike in England many years ago, 43 inches long.  Took it to the taxidermists over there to get mounted and they wanted to know why I wanted to mount one so small?  I was like heck this thing is 6 pound heavier than the state record where I grew up!

He lives in my hometown of williston N.D. he caught it somewhere around there I'm not sure, all I know is he got it mounted for me and I'm super excited about it!!! Hes retired and all he does now is fish and hunt pheasant, one thing I miss about my hometown is the over abundance of pheasant and fish
