Surprise catch, length estimated since I wanted to get him released. Based on my net size and how much boat he covered, at least 28" got him while dragging the twister to my next stop. Can't believe he didn't break the 6 lb test on my ultralight setup.

Got to wrangle with a tough musky in the pouring rain this morning. This one got wrapped up preety good in my line with those gator rolls. Having a good net man and some strong side cutters made for a good release. 🤠🎣💪
