I FINALLY CAUGHT A MUSKIE

Is it the prettiest muskie in the world?  No.  It was still pretty beaten up from spawning.  That does not take away from the fact that I finally hooked, fought, and landed a muskie.  I have boated muskies before that hit another fish I was already reeling in, but this is actually the first muskie that I caught while actually fishing for the toothy critters.

Last fall, I was river fishing, and I caught a rod and reel combo with a jerk bait attached.  It must have been lost by someone fairly recently before I caught it as everything was in great shape.  I figure it must have been destiny because it had a left handed baitcasting reel (just like I like them), and it had the lure that caught me this fish.
