Not sure if this has been posted anywhere, but I couldn't find it so I'm posting. Sorry if it is a re-post. Too bad this fish couldn't be released.

Amazing! Now that is a nice 55'er! The story says he tried to release it, but the fish did not revive. Love all the pix thay shot. Great story!

He doesn't own a car, just that boat, that he drives to work every day. The water looks awesome over there.

That has to be one tough boat, he must set it up as a scratcher for the winter months

Nice fish. Unique coloration. I have 50 incher on the wall for the same reason. I caught it trolling for eyes. After 30 minutes of attempting to revive it just went belly up and died. I spoke with a few muskie addicts and they told me that unfortunately it does happen. I'm not sure it is true, but I thought I gave it my best. I still feel bad though.

A fish like that hits the net, I don't care who sets hooks, I just want to be in the boat.
With the year Tim's having, I will be happy to get the net

what I find really cool and admirable about muskie bums is that, if that fish revives, it's still swimming...and the guy apparently spent a lot of time trying to get it going...
but if the fish wasn't going to make it...it's a good thing to go the rest of the way and certify it...
Great story all the way around...great photos...I hope/wish they'd talk a bit more about how hard the guy worked to revive the fish ... as his intent was not to get a record...
