"The DNR did not say if the fish had offered to grant three wishes in return for tossing it back into Mille Lacs."

What a fish! I appreciated the Editor's Note too!

Editor’s note (Oct. 31, 2022): An earlier version of this story described the fish as nearly 6 feet in length. It should have been 5 feet. The editor just blew it.

Never better, attitude is a choice.

I love this: "I’d like to say thank you to all of the people who have caught that fish over the past 20-plus years, took care of her and put her back,” he said. “She is still out there for all of you to go try to catch again!"

I will paddle eternal, Kevlar and carbon.

I glanced over the story and missed that…thanks for pointing it out!

Lake is loaded with 12 to 15 inch tullibees. So that Muskie ate very well!

That is a big girl. Congrats to the guy that caught it. I wonder how many time she has been caught?

That's awesome, look how fat it is as well as the length. Still have yet to land my first muskie, hooked 5 and lost all of them next to the boat, that being my Prism.
