AUDIO: WOMAN ATTACKED BY MUSKIE
A woman was attacked by a giant fish in northern Ontario last Saturday. Terry Driver and his wife Kim were relaxing with a group of friends on the beach at North Star Village along the Winnipeg River near Minaki, Ontario, when Kim, standing in chest-deep water, let out a scream saying something had her leg. She later said, “I looked down and I saw the fish’s head, which looked like an alligator, and it just grabbed it and it moved me from side to side and then it pulled me under.” Her arms went up, and she went underwater. It turned out the culprit was a large muskie. The freshwater fish can grow up to 6 feet long and weigh more than 50 pounds. Kim fought her way to shore, and the damage along her right calf was pretty severe. The fish had completely engulfed her calf from knee to ankle. Kim was rushed to a hospital in Kenora. She will likely have to undergo plastic surgery to repair her lost skin.
* Attacked by a muskie. That’s pretty crappie.
* This sure gave her something to carp about.
* For payback, the couple ate at Red Lobster that night.
* “What do you use for bait, Terry?” “My wife.”
* It’s Canada – did the muskie apologize?
