I caught this perfectly healthy muskie on Wednesday, September 13, 2023, around noon. It was 35 inches without pinching the tail. I used a black spinnerbait.

The day was partly cloudy with a little wind. I was fishing with my cousin on his boat. The muskie was caught off a weed line and small drop in depth, on the south side of Lake Marie. We took a couple of pictures and released the fish with no issues.
