Hi Guys,
I've got 2 St Croix AC300A reels for sale ($160/each or $300 for both). Both reels were used moderately over the past 2 seasons and are in great shape.

If interested, email me direct at...

I found out by accident today that the Ohio Show is not at the Buckeye Hall of Fame this year. So just a note of info for guys planning to attend... new location:
Bridgewater Banquet & Conference...

Everyone should go to the Chicago Show once just to experience it. If you have to go yourself and blow all that cash on lodging and gas... it just ain't worth it. If you can get a few good guys...

I've been to both shows multiple times over the years (and I've been a vendor at both!). To the question of which is better??? Well, it depends on what you're looking for.

Chicago is an absolute...

Wow Adam... What a toad! Great fish.

In 30 years of musky fishing... this is what I've learned about hammer handle pike... When the pee wee pike are chomping, the muskies are not. You can have a ball catching pike, but anymore, they...

Mr. Pike,
I use 80# braid on all my trolling setups. 100# is fine, but it will hurt you a bit in deep water situations as it tends to make your lures ride a bit higher. Any super-braid will do....

What a great time! Thanks to everyone who showed up. It was great talking to folks and having a couple of hotdogs. And thanks again to Brian and Lisa for organizing the event. Congrats on the great...

Larry,
Thanks for the offer. We've already made arrangements for a place to stay. We'll probably fish for a while on Saturday before I have to head back. I have a couple of deadlines in the studio...

Jay,

Glad I could help. Hope things work out with the reels. I know how frustrating it can be to have equipment problems.

ARK,
Not sure what rod you're using. There are certainly some 8'+ rods out there that aren't up to the task (even some manufactured and sold as "musky rods"). In the last 2 years I've upgraded all...

Walleyes?! I can't even get my mind around that scenario. What kind of musky nut would go to a place like that and waste time fishing for walleyes? HA! ;)

Spence Petros once told me he sprays down his entire collection of lures with WD-40 at the end of the season to prevent corrosion. I asked how he gets rid of the smell the following year. He said the...

You’re opening quite a can of worms here. Red asked me to answer this post, so I’ll do what I can to confuse you a bit more. HA!

With “jackpot” style surface baits, you’ll find that quick hopping...

With the water temperatures you mentioned, most of the muskies will be in the warmer bays going through the motions of spawning. That makes them harder to catch, but not impossible. If you can find...
