VIDEO: Hands-Down the Catch of a Lifetime Right Here

One lucky angler receives the surprise of a lifetime while casting for musky!

One of the thrills of fishing is not knowing what might ultimately bite. Speaking for myself, it's what keeps me returning to the lake week after week. And although I've landed thousands of good fish, I've yet to catch that one which literally makes my jaw drop.

Darcy Cox was recently muskie fishing in Kenora, Ontario, Canada, when the unthinkable happened: he landed the fish of a lifetime! And as you're about to see, getting every inch of it in his oversized net wasn't easily done.

Here's the awesome video:

Ok, a bit late for an April Fools gag, but you must admit, that was pretty epic! And credit must be given to the 'fish' - that's one good sport right there.

Here's to catching your own fish of a lifetime this season!
