I ever caught, heck only Muskie I ever caught lol. It took at least 10 minutes to finally land it and I brought it next to the boat 5 times before we got it in. and our net was way to small. Luckily one of the guys was willing to reach down and grab it out of the water (and also bring his cell phone to take picture).
Just like our net our tape measure wasn't long enough but we conservatively estimate it at 42 inches and 20 to 22 pounds.
Funny thing was I had just got a new rod reel combo and the heaviest line they had for fireline was 6 lbs so I bought that. When we got up there I asked the other guys if that line was going to be strong enough and they said for what we catch it will be fine. So needless to say I think I got really lucky being able to get that thing in the boat considering my tackle lol. I bought the new rod/reel combo because the drag stopped working on my other one so I got lucky that this one worked!
