One of the things that I discovered this year, which I have been skeptical about for years, is the whole moon phase thing. I just didn’t buy it. I understood that the moon controlled the tides etc. That lots of animals, fish etc dictate they’re activities, spawning etc on the phase of the moon. But [...]
Talk about a busy season. I’ve only managed to get out a handful of times this year but me & my friends have done pretty well. So far this year there have been 3 musky over 50 inches this year! Pretty good when you consider how little I’ve been out! Here are some of the [...]
Me and a friend of mine entered the Muskies Inc chapter 58 Opening weekend tournament as casters. We were one of I think 3 or 4 boats that were only casting. We stayed in Anchor bay for both days and fished till we dropped. Because we wnated to make sure that we could do our [...]
After the storms rolled through Sunday morning Jake & I hit the water. We launched from harley and headed for the north channel. After slowly working my way through the channel behind grass island because the buoy’s aren’t out yet, we headed down the Sni. We spent most of the day in there trying various [...]
Some times fishin just has to take a back seat to life….unfortunately. Anyway, I finally mamged to get back out on the lake this morning for a few hours of fishing with a friend of mine. Surprisingly this was the first time he’s been able to get out this year! Poor bastard. So we launched [...]

Last year I started with what seemed to be the standard in musky fishing reels. The abu garcia 5500 & 6500 series reels. I knew lots of people with them and they all spoke highly of them. Well I killed all 3 that I had early this year. When I mean killed’em, drags and/or gears [...]
continue readingWhen it comes to selecting the right musky rod people often look at the wrong things or get caught up in a name or manufacturer. Working on just a name/manufacturer or the weight rating description (medium heavy action or extra heavy action) of the rod can get you into trouble on the water, especially a [...]

This is a really cool video showing that indeed walleyes and musky do hang out in similar places. I’m not sure accurate it is as far as muskies eating walleye which probably does happen from time time but it definitely shows that if you want to jig for musky the walleye holes are a great [...]
Today was truly one of those days for me. I got the chance to hit the lake to chase some musky this morning. So all happy to chase big girls off I went to the marina. I got there and loaded up. everything seemed like it was in line to be a great day. That [...]

Tonight I found out I screwed up bad when I bought the HDS-5. I talked to people about them, looked on the Lowrance website, did research and then headed up to Bass Pro to take a look at one. I was impressed with what I saw because of the side scan/down scan that it had [...]
