After months of persistence, a teenager in Illinois finally caught his first muskie.
On June 17, Kaiden Schrieber, 15, of the Chicago area, caught a 50-inch muskellunge, or muskie, which is nicknamed "the fish of 10,000 casts" for how difficult it is to reel one in. |

Kaiden, who has been fishing for most of his life, told Fox News Digital he’s had his eye on catching a muskie for several years, particularly for the challenge.
"They’re big, predatory fish," Kaiden, an upcoming junior in high school, said. "I really like the predatory fish." |
