So I have seen it spelled both ways but is it Musky or Muskie??
Fishing isn't a matter of life and death....
It's much more important.

You guessed it, naturally it's not writen in stone but musky is American and muskie is Canadian mostly.
I like muskie better because I like to catch muskies not muskys. LOL
Catch and release them all

Muskie - Big fish, narly teeth, top predator..
Musky - The smell in your grandmothers house, the stench between your toes..
It's muskie for sure...

It also may be pronounced like this:
Hey man you'd better get up here, I've got a giant on!....
Holy Sh!te BUD!!.....look at the size of that Mucksie!!

I was waiting for this one BUD.......... I was curious on the proper spelling of mucksie myself... I would have put it as muxie.

Musky is what your drawers smell like after catching a big Muskie.

Good one Trophy and very very true Monster.
If you catch a muskie it could smell musky.
