Musky spawn?

[MASBASS]

I caught two Saturday one 33" and one 36" There was a 47 1/2" - 41 lb musky caught Sunday in Tourney. All of them I have seen are beat up and bloody. Partner and I both had one on Sunday both were well over 40". I hooked up with mine in about 3.5' of water on crankbait. They shallow real shallow and eating anything that comes close to them.

I heard someone sunday say that you can tell the difference between native and released musky. Does anyone know if that is true.

A stocked musky will have one of the front fins clipped off.

I actually caught a tiger musky i guess out of green river lake last year.....took me a minute or two to figure out what it actually was....was only about 10-12 inches and as far as i know the stocked fish are released at 15 inches....was a wild looking fish to catch out of that lake

No offense, but the weight for a fish of that length seems a tad "overly-optimistic". Did anyone get a pic?

Yes they got a pics. All I know is they stated they weighed the fish and she weighed 41 lbs.
I know it had a huge gut on it, I figured full of eggs.

Thanks for the infor. Went today on Green River below Lock 5 and caught one fish just over 30" pretty sure it was a male fish. Caught another within 10 minutes of first fish. She was about 33" and bloody on tail and scrapped on one side. Looks like they are doing there thing right now!
