I remember finding some pictures of musky on the internet that was like the ones I caught. As I recall it was said to be a subspecies found in western Tennessee. I wish I still had the pic.
It could have just been the temperature and water color. It amazes me sometimes when I put an old ugly brown smallmouth in the livewell and then it has the most beautiful markings when I pull it out
