A Trip for the RECORD BOOKS

 Fishing for muskies can be darn right frustrating.  Thousands of anglers make thousands of casts without hooking into a musky.  The fish has a cult like following and is very addictive.  Muskies are one of largest predators in North America reaching weights over 50 lbs and lengths around 55 inches.  They have been known to attack practically everything that swims..ducks, rodents, and even swimmers.  

Friend and avid angler, Larry Walker, recently had a trip for the record books.  In 2 1/2 days fishing with guide, Nolan Sprengeler, on Minnesota's Leech Lake, Larry landed an unheard of 22 muskies.  All were released to battle another day.  The largest was a monster measuring 52.25 inches.  I have never heard of these amazing quantity of trophy muskies being landed in such a short time let alone a lifetime!  Congratulaions Larry!!!
