Muskie Ranks As Gan1est
OF Fresh Water Prizes

'Fresh water fishermen have
long reflected the muskie for its

in which it battles after being hook
ed while students of the sport have
always used the poor fish as a
sounding board for spelling dis
putes," the Heddon Fish Flash,
publicity service Of a Dowwagiac,

points out this week.
There are over forty different
ways Of spelling the name of this
fish, a few of the most popular be-
ing Muskalonge, Muskalunge, Mus
kallunge, Muscallonge and Maska-
longe. At this writing however,
Muskellunge is app emily in
common use and is the version
found in Webster's dictionary.
A member of the Pike family, its
average size is Is to Is pounds.
The largest muskie on record is
81 IL pounds. It was caught by
Percy P. Haver in Lake st. Clair,

it can lie in wait to seize its prey.
1t also can be found in deep chan
nels.
It is highly destructive to all fish
as it preys on other species, as well
as its own. Solitary by nature, it is
the lone wolf of the fresh waters,
lurking in concealed places tc
pounce on lesser fish that may
come its way.
There are really three groups or
three species of muskellunge which
to some extent overlap each other
in their range and, to further com.
plicate matters, often produce
crossbreeds or hybrids. Rather
than confuse the angler with a de-
tailed discussion of this, just the
three main groups will be consid-
cred.
First: there is the northern mus
kellunge which is found in the lakes
and streams of Wisconsin and Min
nesota, and also the waters of
Canada. The markings of this fish,
as well as all muskellunge, vary
greatly in different localities but,
generally speaking, it has blush
gray cast at times with an olive
tinge, the general color being
broken by rather indistinct darker
bands.
The spotted muskellunge is a ma
tive of the St. Lawrence river, and
found in New York, Vermont, the
lower Great Lakes and Canada. 1t
is olivaceous on back, shading in
to grey on sides, at times with a
golden-olive sheen. Lower parts
silvery and belly white. From the
gill covers to the tail and from
slightly below the lateral line it has
many black round spots. In general
is more lightly colored than the
northern muskellunge.
Next comes the barred muskel-
lunge, also called the Lake Chau-
tauqua muskeIlunge, usually found
in Lake Chautauqua, and in the
Ohio river and it's tributaries. Due
to natural causes and transplant
ing, this fish now enjoys a much
larger range and is found from
Pennsylvania and western New
York state to North Carolina, and
in the waters of Tennessee and
northwestern Georgia. The color OF
the barred muskellunge is bronze
on the back shading into a lighter
color below and marked with dark
vertical bars or bands which ex-
tend to the fins.
Just to further confuse matters
there is another muskellunge known
as the tiger muskellunge, Whlch mas
the characteristics of both the
northern and barred muskellunge,
being marked by both spots ana
bars, and this fish is unquest-on-
ably a cross between the two.
The angler, however, is not con.
cerned with the proper spenlng u
this fish's name or to which group
in the family it belongs, but ms
main desire is to catch 1t, 1or as d
fresh water game fish, the mus
ky'' ranks supreme.

and consultation dating back to
