I've attached the following:

NMA 2017 Catch and Release Submissions Dec 9, 2017.xlsx

NMA 2017 Catch and Release Submissions PDF.pdf

NMA 2017 Top Ten unofficial PDF.pdf

The first file is an excel file with several tabs with various sorts, including name, date, size and Top-Ten.

The Top Ten is unofficial. 

The PDF is edited due to size limitations.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Nice work!

The 42" I caught in late November was not caught in the United States. It was in UN2.

About Ken Szymamski's 48" fish in the Top Ten. I doubt he will catch it on 12-21 17. But if someone can predict when I will catch one over 50" please let me know. My luck is, if I knew ahead of time, it wouldn't happen LOL!

[Scott McKee]

Would you want to know when you would catch your next or first musky over 50"? The chase would cease. No anticipation. No exaltation. What if the answer was never? Would you want to know that? Would you stop fishing for muskies?

[Stephen Glassic]

I probably wouldn't believe any prediction and might even consider it to be a curse. Although some people have beginner's luck, as we all know, most of us have to put in the time, effort and money as well as have a lot of faith.

[John Miller]

I would not want to know. The thrill of the hunt is what makes musky fishing so addictive, at least for me. Every minute, even second, that my bait is in the water I feel as if I'm about to get bit. Of course that is seldom the case. But that eternal optimism is what makes it easy to put the hours in that are, for most of us, required to bag a trophy fish. I guess if I knew when I was getting a 50, I'd probably just stay home and wait until the special day. What fun is that?

[carl schenk]

Not sure how some of my fish wound up saying caught in the United States but I didn"t enter them that way, although some of the UN2 fish may have been on our side of the line..

[Scott McKee]

Carl, I'm not familiar with the service we use to collect release submission data, but I'd bet it's just a glitch with their system. It's an easy fix provided members check their data and inform Tony where there fish were caught and released.

[John Pensyl]

Mine phone does it when I use autofill. If I let it fill in my name it puts united states under location. Sneaky sob

[carl schenk]

Maybe it is the autofill. I do use it often. I'll send Tony corrections.

[Stephen Glassic]

AI is not always very I.
