Mackenzie's Muskie

Type: Nontidal
Region: Western
Location: Upper Potomac River

My daughter, Mackenzie Peperak, and I were fishing on the upper Potomac near Williamsport on November 22 when she hooked and landed two Muskies. We were fishing for Muskies using a variety of deep running lures when she caught this 46 inch fish on a crankbait. The fish was quite heavy for its length but we were unable to get a weight. After a few photos were taken, the fish was released unharmed.
