Big Fish Supper Club, Route 2, Bena, Minnesota; 1980

The Big Fish in Bena!

Elongated Muskellunge

Omg! I grew up 10 miles from there! I passed it every time I went to Grand Rapids or Duluth!

I wonder if Big Fish Ensemble ever saw this on the road

Paul Bunyan caught it, I heard, with a bit of choker chain lashed to his great axe, half a skyline grapple for a hook, and 7 wheels of cheese for bait.
I’ll bet the Friday night fish fry there was damn good.
