World Record Muskie Controversies
It never ceases to amaze me the length John Dettloff will go to try and validate the bogus Hayward record muskies from the 30's and 40's from Louis Spray (3) and Cal Johnson (1).
I took him to task in my book "A Compendium of Muskie Angling History" Volume I, 3rd Edition in 2007, and now find in 2010 I have to do it again because of his blatant slanting of the facts and outright bogus defense against a scientific, peer reviewed report from the World Record Muskie Alliance (WRMA) released to the public in December of 2009. (see: www.worldrecordmuskiealliance.com) for the Cal Johnson 1949 "world record".
To make it easier for all, I have included here on this website all of the pertinent information from my book covering all of the previous world record muskies that Dettloff single handedly tried to debunk in order to pave the way for his hero Louis Spray to have had three world records (all of which were bogus), as well as additional information not in my book in rebuttal to Dettloff's attempts to control the press and slant the facts and information regarding the Johnson Muskie.
