I have no idea what a Muskellunge is, but if a recipe exists, Jack
Keller
would have it. His website is at: http://winemaking.jackkeller.net/

muskellunges are a bretty good sized predatory fish.

I do not think you will make a decent wine out of them.

Now muscadets can be made into a decent dry white wine and muscadines
can be made into a nice sweet wine that smells like gasoline.

Muscadines are starting to make their way into comercial wines and even win
competitions. I know Jack Keller will have a lot to say about them.
