Lon used this top water lure to catch his musky. |
Next to this ruler, you can see how big the lure was. |
The musky left his marks on the lure. |
After catching the musky, Lon released it back into Lake Vermilion in MN. |
Jared took several photographs of the musky before Lon released it. |
A year ago, Lon decided to have a replica of his musky made. He placed an order with Joe Fittante Replicas at a fishing show early last year. |
Lon and Jared attended the Chicago Musky Show last Friday where they met Joe, the fellow who made the replica. He brought the completed replica of Lon's 53-inch musky to the show. |
I helped Lon hang it on the wall on Saturday. |
It's a beauty, isn't it!! |
No matter how you look at it, it's impressive. |
Congratulations, Lon, for bringing in a big one. |

WOW .. How on earth do they make such a good replica of a Musky? Amazing! When you wrote Lon did a catch and release and followed with the photos of the mounted fish I wondered how could he do a catch and release AND have the mounted Musky? Now I know ..
Will you watch the Packers play in Seattle this weekend .. what is with Aaron Rogers .. you think his hip is a problem and then he lights up the game.
Smiles and Joy ..
