I call the Muskie the Barracuda of fresh water. I caught one on a shiner when I was a kid fishing for largemouth bass in Vermont. I went to take the hook out and saw those teeth. I ended up cutting the line. It was the biggest freshwater fish I ever caught, but I didn't get a chance to weigh it because I just wanted to get it's mouth away from me. A guy fishing next to me was pretty impressed that I caught it and identified it for me.
I gave up all freshwater fishing when I caught my first big Striper. Nothing in fresh water can compare to catching big Stripers, and I just prefer being at the surf or out on the ocean.
