Still looking for a Musky guide for the U.P. Recommendations are appreciated.

We are looking to cross the border to see if there is Musky potential in the UP area of Michigan and looking for a guide to hire. Areas of interest are around the Watersmeet area. I have scouted...

Mark,

I have seen those retrievers and just never bit the bullet thinking they were gimmicky. With your advice I think I will have to do so. The question is which one?

There are two basic...

We just got back from a trip to this area fishing Lake of the Pines, Winter lake, Connor lake, and Butternut. The hot and sunny high pressure system was part of Thursday and Friday's fishing...

Matt, thanks for the tip. I scouted the area a few years ago on a car trip with my wife. That area looks like nice scenic water to be on. When you say fishing is excellent, I take it you are...

I am headed up north somewhere in about 10 days. I have fished Vilas county extensively over the years and looking for new scenery. Nothing wrong with the area, just looking for a change of...

I think you replied to the wrong post. This topic is conversation of no ethanol gas.

If you guys know of gas stations selling no-ethanol fuel, can you post information such as gas brand, station name, and address? I am creating a link on my web page for stations in wisconsin that...

That is a tough one. In most cases where a station has no ethanol, it will be in the premium grade. One of my last hold outs was Bennett's Sinclair at Airport Road in Middleton, but they are no...

Correct, that is for the whole state. I don't see any fractional data that breaks out these results by region. I also stumbled on some other data of ceded territory lakes as it pertains to Musky...

This is about as good of information one can get on the subject. The survey talks about what was caught, basically showing what the masses are fishing for and not necessarily what each boat is...

The way I read the regulations, Big Lake would be a Vilas county boundary water, so I would gather you would not be able to even troll the shore on the Michigan side.

For motor trolling, the regulations read:

"Motor trolling is permitted on Wisconsin-Michigan Boundary Waters except Vilas County boundary waters, where motor trolling is prohibited."

So you...

This is a good time of year to go as the weeds are manageable. As you look at the lake from the boat landing, try the shoreline to the right of the pier. Most people fish to the left side of the...

Water temps are in the mid to high 50's. I would suggest for early bass activity is to target your smaller waters that typically have a good population of bass and early weed growth. Smaller lures...

Had a great outing today with 20+ bass boated between 8:30 am and 2:00 pm and then the activity shut off. My buddy boated a good 14 bass and some nice gills. Bass were ranging in the 15 to 17" size...

Well, I am finally heading out tomorrow in search of "Sea Kittens" as I had some last minute details to finish up on the boat. Sea Kittens is PETA's new campaign to essentially rename the word...

The regulations are vague. On page 20 of the 2009 regulations:

"Suckers, redhorse, carp, and other rough fish (unless listed as threatened or endangered, p. 13) may be taken by hand or hook and...

I have used Suffix performance braid last season on three rigs. What I like about it is that it lacks the sticky coating like on PowerPro, FireLine, or others. The Suffix has an incredibly tight...
