She is a bit skinnier now, but that could be the difference between just having had a meal of a bigger bait fish. Glad to see she is still alive! She made the Fall Special Edition of Muskie! magazine in the fall of 2010.

Anyway- Nice fish by the way 5" more and wallhanger time! I got a 43.5" a month ago different area more north of your area it ate a tube.

Girth isn't a very good indicator, so yes she could technically be quite a bit smaller, weight wise. Could be the difference between meals. I am pretty sure I have photos of her from that side which I could confirm it being the same fish when I get time.
