The last name Minich owns that lake for Muskie. My Grandfather invented the “natural diving lure” out of cedar. I’d love to gift you one if you’d like. Hit my line :)

Some of the better Muskie areas north end or south end

"Right out of a fairytale" Or more like a nightmare from December to March with 15 feet of snow! But yes, the fishing is good. Theres just nothing there. Biggest major city is 3 hours away (Syracuse)

How big was he ?

I'd have to keep one because I love the way they taste. And if I'm spending my money on a license. Damn sure, I'm gonna make sure I get my moneys worth for that license.

Great fish, wish you put it back in the water faster though.

Awesome 👏 fishing 🎣 out there for the fish of 10,000 casts. I need to get back up there and focus on Muskie. I was there 10 years ago for a bass tournament and one of the guys lost a lure to a muskie

Your reaction is the exact same as when I caught my first musky! I fish Georgian Bay so im used to seeing the best of the best when it comes to raw nature, crystal clear water and fishing. As someone from Ontario, I am so surprised that I had no idea how beautiful this area is. I can not believe it, the European architecture really makes this place insane. Plus insane gators! This place is beautiful!

Was the picture at 3:34 suppose to be a joke? Holy doctored image. I apologize if it was just meant to be funny.

That fish was sneaky, spit out the hook and disappeared.

Fat!!

You can’t hold 50 pounds bro? One arm. Nuff said.

Sick videos bro! I’m a bass guy but lowkey converting into musky lol. I’m based in Toronto. If you ever wanna fish around Canada for musky (or bass) let me know I’d love to collab!

4 footer at best....no biggie

I was smiling through the whole video!! Great job!! Go Cubs!!

What can we do to preserve the quality of our natural fisheries? Cut way back on tournaments and stop the bed fishing - period.

Love your video

Good to see where you guys were at. Thanks for the tips. Learned more about fishing Chautauqua lake for Muskies than I previously knew just by watching this video.

Crazy great cinematography! Slay some! Walk that Dawg!

so awesome; i love smallies. Bucket list for sure

World class fishing, world class video! Fantastic production, well done Sir👍

Heheh, I've had big pike go through my net like that. At least you have some footage. Very exciting.

Any insight for this time of year on the Noth end THE STRUGGLE is REAL

Outstanding video quality!

I can't thank you enough brother

Awesome brother!

What a beast

Good vid, awesome fish, and great production!!!!!western middle or eastern??

Excellent video promoting the 1000 Island area and the fishing. It's now on my "bucket list" of places I want to see and fish before I die 🙂

Awesome stuff Vance!!! God bless brother!!! Great video!!! Boom musky on!!!

Going to a wedding at Lake Chautauqua at the end of September. Might have a day to spare. Would this be a good time to go for musky? Looking for a guide as well as Ill have nothing.

Where do you typically stay when heading up to the river?

I caught my first muskie on chautauqua this week. My grandfather (passed away 17 years ago) made his own lures and i caught mine off of his while with my dad. You can’t make this stuff up. Fish of a lifetime! My grandpa was watching over me that day

Great video!!

I watched this from out in BC, was nice to see my river again. I grew up in the 1000 Islands, Brockville to Alex Bay was my home, from the time the ice went out until my boat was getting snow in it. It is really great to see people really appreciate the beauty of the river. Sure miss it.

Great video, I know you like casting, but the Buffalo Harbor in the fall has some giant females. Bummer about your net, but great memories and you got it on film.

It’s nice to see someone get extremely excited to catch one of the St. Lawrence Gators. Every year 50+ inch monsters are taken from the St. Lawrence. I’m lucky to live in Kingston Ontario which is located at the mouth of the St. Lawrence River on Lake Ontario. It is an incredible fishery. I know of people who travel long distance north of Kingston to fish and we have one of the best fisheries in our back yard. Happy fishing and keep the lines tight.

💩happens.

Great video!!

The bag on those nets are terrible!! Buy a good replacement bag and you’ll have a good net.

Best day of fishing I've ever had with this dude! We went thru 10 dozen shiners in 4 hrs. 5 biggest 9lb,8lb,a couple 7lbers, and endless 5 & 6lb fish and we never moved the boat more than 20 ft.!!! Yes we hit it on the right day. Mark did & does a phenomenal job. I will never forget that day!

Wow, an entire video of B-roll.

Wow the way that muskie just sliced thru that net..

Great video!!

Chad is sooo handsome.💋💋🇵🇱

Holy sh#t

That’s a monster

Nice👍🏾

Great Vid!! ***Inset I WANT TO GO TO THERE GIF*** LOL
