Hey everyone wonder if you guys can give me a rough weight on this muskie, I had him out of the water long enough and didn’t want to take the time to weigh him. He’s 42″ long. just looking for a rough estimate.
Thanks in advance

I’m no pro, but I’ll throw a guess out there. He or she is pretty stocky, I would say around 17-20 pounds. 
Great catch, must have been an awesome fight!
20 to 22 nice fish!!!!
I was also going to throw out the 18 – 20 lbs range. Nice fish.
Nice river ski. I’d say 25lbs give or take a lb or 2.
Take care!

Hmm, I wonder where you caught that?
Still looking for my first down there, nice!
18 lb Was out there when you caught this fish nice job great handling of her. But why do you have to keep telling people of the potential on the river SHHHHHH.
RNJ:
18-22#, I think my 42″ tiger was 19#… Nice fish!!!

Muskiechasher,
What boat were you in? That’s the first one I’ve ever caught down there. I just assumed it was a rare occurrance. I seem to have the best luck muskie fishing with the blind squirell method. 
As for the handling, I thought it was a cat or sturgen so I wasn’t too worried about breaking the line, no big loss to me. I just wanted to keep him out of the anchors. Wish they still made that line it’s some strong stuff.
