Bible verse of the day: 3 Romans 5:5 “And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us”
How was the audio for this video? I had to talk a little louder than usual to put my voice over the sound of the water coming down the dam, on a scale of 1-10 what would you rate it?
Really appreciate your presentation and style of fishing. Understated and knowledgeable. A nice change from all the whooping and hollering ("BIG muskie, dude", etc) one encounters on so many videos. Nice fish, too. Atb.
I had been planing to stop by sometime and decided to make the trip up there to get some new lures for videos. Bought a bumblebee manta glide there and already put two fish in the net!
Takes dedication to toss the same bait all day, but the reward for a fish going after that bait would be awesome. Cheers to your cameraman, that's great she will hang out filming with you while you're fishing all day.
The grind pays off after a while when one bites, sadly never got one on the big bait but I tried my best. And yes haha, she doesn’t really know how to use the camera but she sure is great at holding it lol. It’s more fun with her around, I wanted her to fish but she didn’t have her Wisconsin license and I haven’t taught her how to use a baitcaster yet
Nice video Nathan. I was SO sure that a giant was going to NAIL that 14" bait. The Musky you landed was a beauty! Also, nice job on your cuts in the video. It was nice to have the different angles (viewpoints). My big goal for 2024 is to land my very first Musky when I'm up in Maine for the summer. I tried last year. Fished the St. John River that borders USA / Canada. All I caught were smallmouth but it was still a fun adventure. I'll go back to that river but will try to find a campground and spend a week up there so I have more time. Thanks for sharing.
Great video man! I always learn watching your videos. I spent 6 days fishing 13+ hours a day at St. Lawrence river and had follows and a couple get off so I would say my 2024 goal is to land my first musky
You just got another subscriber! Great job on the videos. Also love the hellhound… I remember throwing the prototype of that bait about 20 years ago on Lake Kincaid. So fun when they come out of nowhere and destroy it.
I was thinking there’s no way a black man hasn’t been recorded catching a Muskie, then I realized this is the first video I’ve ever watched of Muskie fishing and nothing was caught so it became way more believable. Hope you land, or have already landed that trophy Muskie!
@bullgravy6906 😂😂😂 I usually put mine in front of the video so people don’t gotta watch the whole video for the catch, not everyone got time for that lol
I've never hooked into a mushy. I've hooked some nice pike in Canada. I recently moved to Virginia and on the upper James river there's a river that runs into it called the New River it's close to West Virginia and it looks beautiful from the pictures I look at online it's the only river in the state that holds musky. I've always wanted to go to Minnesota and go musky fishing one day I will take my daughter there and hopefully she will hook her first fish of 10,000 casts. Great video I look at it the same way when I go to a place and don't catch a trophy I appreciate the scenery and the time spent on the water.
I hope you catch a musky soon, when the fish is slow it really lets you appreciate the gorgeous scenery and places you are at. Tight lines man. Thanks so much for watching
Great video man! I love too catch a Musky but...in the Netherlands i only can catch a pike on the ERC Hellhounds. New PB pike will be nice too catch! Greets Robert
I had never watched your videos before. Then we talked for a second in person at this spot. Then youtube started suggesting all your videos. Creepy but I subbed! Lots of better dams in that area but with that current, it was the best choice.
100% agree the current is what made me choose that dam, I’m currently at a differnt one right now and doing pretty well also. That is wierd that TH-cam suggested the videos 😂
I just got home from a fishing trip in Southwest Virginia for Smallmouth. I had a beautiful Musky follow my jig to the bank, the first one I have ever seen in real life. This video has really inspired me to give em a try next time I go there.
I was going to say this guys general look, voice and demeanor reminded me of Pastor Rob from the tv show Young Sheldon and then I saw the Bible verse. Seems I was right 😂
First, great video! Love the content. It was personally a great throw back for me. I caught my first Muskie below that damn many years ago. I actually caught it on an Antique lure from the 1930's. A frog pattern South Bend Whirl-O-Reno top water bait. Good memories. Keep up the good content. Be careful on the tracks up there.
Thank you so much for watching, I’m glad you caught fish there. It’s a great spot with a good number of fish. I’ll make sure I’m careful on the tracks!!
Biggest Musky I have ever seen was Lake St. Clare. It was at a spot they call the dumping grounds. It's where the dredging were dumped. It was sunning it self as we drifted past in our 16 foot rowboat. Was about 25 years ago, I actually thought it was a dead sturgeon at first.
would love to catch the pike or rainbow trout that keeps missing my top water zara spook the last few years. Great to see yoir a christian ( a brother in Christ) my second video i watched of yours. Im now subscribed. Gods grace, and love shine on and through you brothrr.
That's my favorite spot when I go up there. I target the smallies usually, but get the occasional small tiger musky. I wouldn't consider it southern WI though, lol. Maybe we can link up next time I head up. Tight lines.
Thank you for taking us along. Just subscribed. Question, why did you wait 4-5 hours before switching lures, especially since you said you had never not gotten a bite on the white glide bait. Thanks again for taking us along.
Honestly when I shore fish I don’t usually bring to many lures with me since I would have to drag them everywhere. So I just stick with it and keep casting
@@NASPELTZ Yes, but I'm stuck. I’ve made a lot of beautiful fishing lures, but I couldn’t test many of them well because of the environment in which they were used.
are you southeast wisconsin? im southwest and sadly not too many muskies are near me. probably atleast an hour plus drive away for a decent chance. great video man
That’s what I thought as well, I had to boost my voice to put it over the sound of the water and it came out like that. I’ll make sure it doesn’t happen again.
The girl was on net duty 😂 I carried everything else and she was there with the net when I needed it, I had the net the whole time, even when walking down river
Bible verse of the day: 3 Romans 5:5 “And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us”
Amen brother. 🙏🏼
❤️
Now im Done
Subbed for putting God first- good job brother
@yakangler419 God always comes first ❤️
I appreciate that there is no music in the background. Just real fishing, real knowledge being spoken.
There was a little music at 1 point
@everythingollie9677 ya but not loud music over what I’m saying, just some relaxing music during the drone footage and such
How was the audio for this video? I had to talk a little louder than usual to put my voice over the sound of the water coming down the dam, on a scale of 1-10 what would you rate it?
10 sounds great 👍🏻
9 it was pretty good
I could hear every word easily… love the sound of the water in the dam!
Aweosme just making sure
Aweosme :)
Dude is the Bob Ross of musky fishing
Haha no, the audio for this video was honestly not that good. I’ll do better next time
This guy is so chill😂
Im a 13 year old fisherman from Finland and mostly fish for pike and my goal is to learn precise throws with a bait caster :)
And you will.
The editing is spectacular. The cuts away to you from a distance and drone shots really add to experience. Excellent job.
Hey thank you so much, I’m glad you enjoyed :)
This guy is like the bob ross of fishing, catches a fish and sounds so calm. Love the vids for sure going to sub
Absolutely amazing video, hard to find videos like this. Love how calm you are-tight lines!
Thanks so much Ryan, glad you enjoyed :)
Really appreciate your presentation and style of fishing. Understated and knowledgeable. A nice change from all the whooping and hollering ("BIG muskie, dude", etc) one encounters on so many videos. Nice fish, too. Atb.
Hey thanks so much, I’m glad you like this style of content. I hope you have a great rest of your day Laurie
I figured it was you I saw at Thorne the other day. Thanks for stopping by the shop!
I had been planing to stop by sometime and decided to make the trip up there to get some new lures for videos. Bought a bumblebee manta glide there and already put two fish in the net!
Great video hoping to catch my PB tiger musky this year
Bob ross of fishing
Your surgical with those casts.. very precise and on point.. took me years to get that accurate
Outdid yourself yet again with this one dude - that spot looks like heaven! Absolutely epic!
Thanks so much for watching :)

Loved the video. Love to see you bank fishing !!! The audio is really good ngl. Another great video !
Heyy thanks so much
I love to fish the 8 inch swim whizz, but its really hard to cast. Oldie but goldie!

I fished a bunch of muskie tournaments on Kincaid what a lake! Think I might even have a couple trophies from there
Goal for 2024: try Muskie fishing. They fish just north of where I live in North Webster Indiana. Want to give it a try!! Cheers, Mark
That’s absolutely beautiful there. I’m going to have to come up there fishing sometime. Thanks for taking us along with you.
I’d love to have you out fishing Keith!
@@NASPELTZ
That would be awesome. If I ever get a chance to come up there I’ll let you know. God bless you brother. 😃🙏🏼👍🏻
My goal is to catch my first muskie and to possibly be the first black fisherman to record a muskie catch on video!!
Heck ya man, I can’t wait to see it happen. I’m hyped for you to get one
I was thinking there’s no way a black man hasn’t been recorded catching a Muskie, then I realized this is the first video I’ve ever watched of Muskie fishing and nothing was caught so it became way more believable. Hope you land, or have already landed that trophy Muskie!
@@bullgravy6906 what do you mean nothing was caught? I caught a Muskie in this video 😂
@@NASPELTZI’m a tool I jumped to about 3/4 the way through 😂 I always assume the videos end on a catch

Great stuff dude!
What power cord, mic and power source do you use to connect to your gopro to keep it powered ?
that entire area looks so good. Great video, i would say my main goal would be to catch a largemouth over 8lbs or a smallmouth over 5.
Thanks so much for watching Luke, that’s a great goal and I hope you accomplish it this year
@@NASPELTZ hope you get that 50" muskie!
@lukeslemmer we will see
What was that box under the tree limb at 13:16 ?
Thank you ! Your videos are always interesting and have helped me
Your persistence is admirable
Thank you :)
Great video and patience. I'm hoping to get my first musky on a lake we just moved to. I hear there are monsters there. Good luck with your year!
Great video man!
I love too catch a Musky but...in the Netherlands i only can catch a pike on the ERC Hellhounds.
New PB pike will be nice too catch!
Greets Robert
Netherlands has great pike though! I like using European pike lures for Wisconsin musky. They are usually designed really well
@@coldvoid7579 Nice too hear that!

Man gotta love fishing and you just making me wanna fish more man I love the contact and you're making me wanting to go fishing more
That’s awesome, I hope the next time you go out you catch a giant
Hope to catch my first musky this year!!
Where do get the pistol like grip for your fishing rods. Like the one you used in this video
I was going to say this guys general look, voice and demeanor reminded me of Pastor Rob from the tv show Young Sheldon and then I saw the Bible verse. Seems I was right 😂
Great vid! Great camera shots!! Hoping to get a 50 also.
This is Sothern Wisconsin? It looks like the north. Id really like to know this stretch of river

Thanks so much for watching, I get them at st.croix.com
Hey great video what kind of rod was u using
Where is this at I’ve been trying to get my first musky for a long time and I’m going on a fishing trip to catch one soon wouod be so helpful !

Have you ever fished near the hasting mn area?

What river were you fishing I live close to southern Wisconsin
That is definitely not southern wisconsin😂.
@Mike-lt6sj 👀 shhhh
The waters looked terrible is it where the people dumped theirs scrapped metal?
Is a pike the same as a pickerel?
Great video
I just subscribed i don't get to target musky only pike in my area soni enjoy watching others catch them.
would love to catch the pike or rainbow trout that keeps missing my top water zara spook the last few years. Great to see yoir a christian ( a brother in Christ) my second video i watched of yours. Im now subscribed. Gods grace, and love shine on and through you brothrr.
Are the musky biting in the lakes yet?
Yes
CRAPPY AND MUSKY. Whoever nicknamed these fish is hilarious.
If your open to it, my buddy and I have been hitting a lake in the east metro that's been producing some decent musky and bass
I’d love to fish it with you, I’ve fished every lake in the metro that has musky, they are all super fun
@@NASPELTZ my buddy and I will be going on memorial day if your free!
@zacceusronning3623 I’ll be in Wisconsin musky fishing sorry
@NASPELTZ hey no worries man! Wisconsin definitely gives minnesota a run for its money with musky!
That's my favorite spot when I go up there. I target the smallies usually, but get the occasional small tiger musky. I wouldn't consider it southern WI though, lol. Maybe we can link up next time I head up. Tight lines.

Maybe not super southern I suppose 😂😂
awesome shots and video!

Where do you get all your lures
Scheels usually
Thank you for taking us along. Just subscribed. Question, why did you wait 4-5 hours before switching lures, especially since you said you had never not gotten a bite on the white glide bait. Thanks again for taking us along.
Honestly when I shore fish I don’t usually bring to many lures with me since I would have to drag them everywhere. So I just stick with it and keep casting
@@NASPELTZ Thank you for the fast reply.
@waltgr6470 absolutely
Gotta be some giant Flatheads in there!
It looks great here. I live by the sea and there are only some small fish on the shore.
Thanks so much for watching, even if the fish are small a lot of the fish in the sea are just gorgeous
@@NASPELTZ Yes, but I'm stuck. I’ve made a lot of beautiful fishing lures, but I couldn’t test many of them well because of the environment in which they were used.
What’s the spot ???
3:43 musky
16:33 pike
Tell me if i missed anything
are you southeast wisconsin? im southwest and sadly not too many muskies are near me. probably atleast an hour plus drive away for a decent chance. great video man
Yes, I’m sure your going to find a musky soon don’t worry. Thanks so much for watching
Incredible video!
Thanks Phoenix!!!
How do you cast so far? And effortlessly? Once again another masterpiece of a video ❤
Excellent video, thanks.
Thanks so much :)
Amen brother!
That is one huge action camera on a cap😂😂😂😂
Fr 😂😂😂 gotta choice better quality over more comfortable lol
Where can I find that pistol grip
Whats the exact rod are you using?, sorry link does not work.
St.croix legend tournament musky
another great video my goal for this season is to catch my first muskie I've been trying for 10 years
I really hope you accomplish this goal and catch a big musky this year :)
@@NASPELTZ me too i appreciate it
1st muskie, hope you land that 50!!
I love fishing that spot I em local to the Hatfield dam and canals
Awesome video as always. One thing I noted. The audio was a little odd. The S's were pretty harsh
That’s what I thought as well, I had to boost my voice to put it over the sound of the water and it came out like that. I’ll make sure it doesn’t happen again.
Interesting you don't run a wire leader.

Smp stand for sweet magic pumpkin
Like having ur own Muskie fish tank
Haha I suppose
GREAT TRIP" Nice Fish! Newsub in Idaho!
Common Wisconsin W
Wisconsin river Musky fun
My cousin caught a smaller Muskie on a lipless crank bait in the first few minutes of fishing
Need some thing louder on this water all the spill water making it harder for the musky to locate your glide bait. Quad dawg or blade baits.
Super smart, I’m sure a blade or suick would have been awesome
Catch my first musky!
This guy reminds me of the hippie teacher on beavis and butthead
You mean Mr. Van Driessen bro is the goat
Love to catch my first musky
I really hope you do :)
I'm at 5:26 and you are walking without your net. Uh oh...
The girl was on net duty 😂 I carried everything else and she was there with the net when I needed it, I had the net the whole time, even when walking down river
@@NASPELTZ Ha, I figured. Just got nervous because I've done that before with an old trout net!
How do you not get snagged every time?????
It can be hard at some spots but just making sure I keep my bait higher in the water Column helps
My goal is pretty simple. An MA sunfish and bass.
Hello Brother Nash hows it going today
It’s going great Andy how about you?
