Muskellunge are found in Lakes and large rivers from northern Michigan, northern Wisconsin and northern Minnesota, through the Great Lakes region, north into Canada, throughout most of the St Lawrence drainage and northward throughout the upper Mississippi valley, although the species also extends as far south as Chattannooga in the Tennessee River valley. Several North Georgia reservoirs have stocked populations of muskie. They are also found in the Red River drainage of the Hudson Bay basin. So unless they were stocked specifically in the lake where this little bullhead came from, I doubt that a muskie is what bit it in half, more likely a snapping turtle.
However i suppose anything is possible.

West Virginia has a large population of native muskies ( I grew up on the Poca River in WV which had a large population of muskies and even small tributary creeks that went dry in the summer except for large pools of water often had muskies) but almost anything from a turtle to another catfish could have done that...
It was me. I was hungry but didn't want to get fat so I just ate the middle of the catfish and put the rest back. I observed your discovery of the remains from the vantage point of the bush I was hiding in, but just as I was about to jump out and scare you, I saw more animals that needed biting into halves.
