CBR I hope you were joking about the javalin throw of a musky is all you need. these fish are big and strong but after you get them worn out they need lots of help or they will end up dead. I have taken hours after getting a fish unhooked just to make sure she was ok before I went on my way. there are 2 big reasons you seen dead ones around a lake. 1st people dont know how to handle them right so they or the fish dont get hurt. 2nd poeple just throw them back and drive off . lots of times the fish will swim away for a bit but then a few mins later you see them floating a bit away. so you need to go back and help them. sorry but this is a sore spot for me because there are just so few muskies in a lake.
