    A very slow morning for my boat yesterday as the weather cooled off just like the musky fishing. Todd did manage to stick a 4lb. smallmouth that thought she was ready to tackle a musky sized meal. We had zero follows of any kind as well.

    On Monday, we will chase toothies on the fly. Hopefully, the warm moist air returns and the sky isn’t so blue.


    Good luck and stay tuned!

    The cooler weather sure cooled things off for my boat over the past several days. Once again, we had zero action from the muskies on Monday morning. The river has finally cleaned up from last week’s storms but has also cooled off a couple of degrees in the process.

    Looks like I will take a few days off from the river and get some jobs around the house completed before visiting my dad down in the flood ravaged areas of Appalachia. My next trip will be Tuesday next week.


    Good luck and stay tuned!

    A late positive Covid test (last nite) for one of my guys forced us to cancel today’s fishing. We were already thinking about cancelling due to to today’s forecast so this made it much easier.

    My next trip will be Friday. We will chase muskies. Hopefully, the river stays clean and in good shape by then.

    Good luck and stay tuned!

    We set sail at sunrise on (a very cool and foggy) Friday morning looking for muskies. Things were very slow for the first 4 hours but after the sun worked its magic, we moved 2 nice fish in the last hour but were not able to force-feed them at boataide. Both fish were in the 36-42” range. The river is low and not much coming from the tributaries either. Be careful out there!

    We may hit the water on Tuesday and Friday next week if our schedules match up.

    Good luck and stay tuned!

    Looks like the weather will allow us to chase muskies on Friday. The river was bumped up a little this week to help keep the barges afloat and endangered aquatic life healthy in the lower river.


    Good luck and stay tuned!

    On Friday, our goal was to have an enjoyable day on the water and that is exactly what we did. Chris had 2 nice muskies visit him at boatside but both decided to skip the easy meal and vanish under the boat. We found a little stained water downriver and decided to focus our efforts there for most of the morning. River temps have dropped about 4 degrees the past 2 weeks. Fall is sneaking up on us.

    On Monday, we plan to chase a mixed bag of fish but just haven’t decided which ones yet.


    Good luck and stay tuned!

    After looking at the forecast one last time last nite, we decided to play it safe and cancel today’s fishing. The threat of lightning was the biggest concern. Hopefully, we can sneak it in before school starts. Oddly enough, the same exact thing happened with these guys last August.

    My wife and I might even try to squeeze in 9-holes today if we can find a break in the weather.


    Good luck and stay tuned!
