Went out for musky today again with skillfullangler. It wasnt very long before we got some action. On around my 5th cast i was retrieving my bucktail when it all of sudden came to a hard stop and it was fish on. This fish turned, rolled, shook, and leaped out of the water. By far most intense fish fight of my life. Just when we thought he was done he would tear away from the side of the boat with more power every time. We finally got him into our net, which needs to be a little bigger next time and then out of the water for a couple quick pics then back in and away he went. Getting him into our 10 foot jon boat was also a tough task. The tape measure used to measure him was 44 inches long and it wasnt long enough. This fish was roughly 47-48 inches. After that though it was pretty slow had a couple more follows but no more in the boathttp://i1163.photobucket.com/albums/q544/Gatto1227/019-1.jpghttp://i1163.photobucket.com/albums/q544/Gatto1227/020.jpghttp://i1163.photobucket.com/albums/q544/Gatto1227/018-1.jpg

Great fish and pics. Hard to believe we have one of the most prized freshwater fish swimmin around in here in Jersey.

Sick fish pal, that was a crazy experience and I didn't even catch it. I do deserve at least 12 inches of it for being the net/camera man, so nice 36in musky lol.
