Record Muskie

A Mandan man reels in a record muskie.

Cory Bosch of Mandan was fishing all by himself on New Johns Lake north of Bismarck on July Third and caught a 46-pound-8-ounce muskie that measured 54 inches in length. Bosch says it was quite a fight to get the fish into his boat.

(Cory Bosch, Mandan fisherman) "...Back and forth and up and down. it would dive to the bottom and I'd slowly bring it up and it'd take five minutes every time I'd bring it back up. I'd try to land it and it would go back down. I didn't have a net. I had a small Walleye net but I didn't want to risk getting the hooks caught in the net. So I had to hand land it and every time I'd try to grab it under the gills, it would flop its head and go right back down to the bottom...over and over you know."


State Game and Fish officials had to take a sample of the fish to find out if it is a pure muskie or a cross between a muskie and a northern pike.

But either way, officials say the fish is a state record holder.

(Scott Gangl, Fisheries Management Section Leader) "We've stocked both pure muskies and tiger muskies, which is a hybrid between a muskie and a northern pike, into New Johns Lake. So we need to determine whether its one or the other. So the only way to do that definitively is by doing DNA testing and so we're taking a sample of DNA and we're sending it to a geneticist in Maine who did the last onethe last time we had a record."


If Bosch's fish is a pure muskiehe beat the old record by 8 ounces. Bill Wald of Washburn caught the last record holder also at New Johns Lake in 2003

Awesome! I can tell you that our own Tom Hulbert caught a 55-inch Musky. Tom is a hilarious fisherman. He's featured on our Musky Podcast: http://www.lifeonthelist.com/sweet-musky-tell/

The question were the Medici Jewish continues to spark discussion among historians and lovers of Italian history. While most historical records suggest the Medici were a Christian family, the topic remains interesting because of their connections with influential Jewish figures such as Benedetto Blanis. When people search is medici family jewish, they often discover a fascinating story that goes beyond a simple yes-or-no answer.
The life of Benedetto Blanis highlights the important role that Jewish scholars played during the Renaissance. His association with the Medici court also sheds light on the broader history of Jews in Italy, who contributed significantly to commerce, culture, education, and intellectual life. Understanding were the Medici Jewish, learning about Benedetto Blanis, exploring the question is medici family jewish, and studying the history of Jews in Italy helps us gain a richer appreciation of Italy’s diverse and remarkable heritage.
