Step 1 have a boat
Step 2 cast using ocean rod and reels
Step 3 cast using a lure no smaller than a small dog.
Step 4 repeat till 10000 casts are achieved then something huge eats your small dog lure.
Alexander Schumacher especially Medusa’s the 8oz ones are expensive. But ocean rods and reels eh that’s a bit far st croci musky mojos are where it’s at. I run round body sub reels or the revo max.
Hah hah
@Hunter fishman should have brought the scuba gear
LOL
i caught a musky the other day and all i have is a 6'6" heavy action rod with an abu garcia ambassadeur and the bait i was using was just a small mepps musky killer. it was a 39" and put up a real fight
Funny I had the same set up rod and everything and still year 8 still no musky
I've got a 7' fast heavy abu garcia with an ambassadeur on it too. No musky on it yet but I've got pike, bass and walleye on it great set up.
Chump change
step 20: dont buy shitty leaders and have your bearings break and yeet your 40 dollar glide bait into the abyss.
I live in Minnesota and I catch a lot of decent pike, but I’ve always wanted to catch a musky. I never really knew how to start and I’ve tried it a couple times, I just figured you just use big northern lures, but I never caught one. This video is such a great help and I love watching videos about fishing right in my home state This was super helpful! Keep catching hogs!
Ever been to wabedo?
@@justin11527 you fish that lake a lot? I'm looking for a good musky lake. I was on boy lake today no musky just pike
Same
That clip of the musky jumping over the spillway is 🔥🔥
Really glad to see this video, I actually just asked The Musky Shop to do a video on this!
Just watched this whole thing and I’ve been musky fishing for 5 years now. Still feel like a rookie haha
I've literally never tried for musky before. I've caught a 10 pound largemouth, 8 pound smallmouth, 30 pound striper, and a 45 pound flathead cat, yet I only just discovered that I live 30 minutes from the lake where my state record musky was caught 🤦
Well, now it's time to learn
I just caught a 48" muskie yesterday. I was rigged for bass so I had 20lb braid with 12 lb fluro leader.... Just unbelievable. Amazing fight, never thought I was gonna land it
Wow that’s inbelievable
Glad you mentioned the bass rig. I've only been musky fishing one time in my life. So, I used the biggest rods I have, They're for big catfish but they work. I was pulling double magnum 10's with my Abu 6500 C3 "Catfish Special". The setup wasn't nearly as nice as my father-in-laws musky rod and reel, but it got the job done.
Shimano Sojourn was my first musky rod, it was 50 bucks and has caught me a lot of fish. In fact I still use it sometimes, nothing wrong with those rods.
Rod Belding just picked one of these up! What reel did you pair with it?
The big issue with these seems to be packaging - Amazon is full of complaints about eyelets broken in transit.
I use a wet stone (ultra fine grit) for sharpening hooks. You can get them super sharp that way.
Killer! I was obsessed as a kid in catching musky and have caught a few. Fast forward 20 years and I fish alot of bass/pike. Watching you guys has actually enticed me to dust off the ol musky rod and musky tackle box and planning to throw for some soon. Thank you.
@SilentDiablo got a small 30 inch musky a month ago. Had some nicer fish follow this year also.
Dumbest fish in the lake?
Hmmm.. ok.. lol
The reason they bite baits while the rod is swishing in the water is because they are the top predator in fresh water. Would you say a shark is the dumbest fish in the ocean? I'd hope not, because they are very intelligent but ONCE AGAIN.. The TOP PREDATOR in their waters. Just like muskies, they have no predators other than man. They eat what they want and when they want simply because they can. Also, lake fishing is ALOT different than river fishing. But I love yalls videos and keep up the good work.
Good info. video guys. After chasing tools around the boat I finally mounted a long magnet on the side of the boat. All the tools stick on there and don't have to look for them.
Hey Lee and Robbie, thanks for putting in the time giving to the community like you do. I've found that the muskie fishing community is pretty generous and welcoming. I've actually caught a couple employing tactics I've picked up from TA videos.
One thing I've noticed in videos that isn't really mentioned much is often I'll see people set the hook back in the direction of the fish on the eight. I've lost one eight fish just from taking too long to net it in very shallow water, and that's the only one I've ever hooked. I believe I pulled straight up on that one. On the other two fish I've had a realistic chance of hooking on the eight, I also pulled straight up (rod loaded up but it didn't get hooked, yes hooks were sharp) and on the second pulled away before the fish had even closed its mouth. It's hard to not underreact if a fish eats on the eight out of nowhere when you had no idea it's there, and it's hard not to overreact if you're expecting it but have limited experience. Especially standing in the water with the fish. Do you think it's a good plan to condition myself to set the hook in the direction of the fish when possible?
Thanks. Im sure we will do more vids.
Those Xuron pliers are one of the best tools I have ever found. Bought them at a musky show, years ago, and now have several pairs. Great tool!
Amazing video guys! This video will help out so many new anglers and I definitely found it very helpful!
Enjoy watching you guys! Thanks for the videos. I reeled in my first musky the other day. As I told Sam with Blue Ride Musky, these videos of pointers and recommendations go a long way. For instance, never would have thought about something simple like buying a pair of bolt cutters to cut the hooks. I can say I safely caught and released that beautiful species off a fish with no harm done. So thanks guys! Tight lines!
That's awesome!!
Thanks a lot guys, what a helpful video. After years of trolling my dad and I are finally getting into musky casting. Planning to tear up Lake St. Clair this summer!
they did make a musky fishing gear video! thank you for the great content. i dont have anyone to teach me very thankful for this channel.
I’ve got a few skis under my belt, but this vid was awesome and I hope to put some of these to use this fall. Thanks guys!
Thank you for sharing your passion!! Love the videos and respect all the time and effort you put into it ✌️
That was the most straight forward start to finish video I have ever watched. Big time thank you to you guys.
I'm not a big fisherman but my brother and I are determined that musky is where we will get serious.
Get a better camera fellas, your videos are top notch! Keep em coming.
Seriously great video. This is like musky public service... I would love to see some techniques for the various baits out there - especially rubber and glide baits. Also, finding musky holding structure and how to plan your drift to fish that particular feature would be great to see as well. This fall I hope to try some sucker fishing using your sucker rig video as instruction. As always, thanks guys...
Great video for beginners, also a great refresher for veteran musky anglers.
Looking forward to my first Musky, thanks for all the tips!
Thanks for the video started fishing for musky after a 50 incher followed in my lipless crank
Caught my first muskie years ago on a black rooster tail fishing for bass. Looking forward to getting into it this year!
Nice video thanks for all the advice!
Really great video guys ! I appreciate all your videos, but this one will be a reference video for me for the future. Thanks again !
How to videos never hurt, love the info and videos keep it up!!!
Best video of 2019 !! Well said
🙏
Looks like so much fun! Thanks guys great Muskie tutorial!!! 🎉
awesome video this summer im gonna catch my first musky for sure with your tips!
Glad you liked
Wow what a great video guys! This was the one stop shop informative video, thanks so much can’t wait to get out there and out these tips to use! Thanks so much!
I ignored my need for sleep on a school night and all the other things to scroll for just to watch this.
Ha thanks
Awesome tips! This helps me out a ton. You guys are THE best 👍
the first muskie I ever caught cut through my 120lb fluorocarbon leader just thrashing its head while in the net. It is wire leaders only for this guy! Great vid BTW, I have been watching your channel quite a bit the past few weeks and love the content. The Lake St. Clair videos in particular take me back. I grew up in Sarnia, ON and fished LSC quite a bit as a teenager. I never did figure the muskie out but as I've matured as an angler I'm excited to go back and get into some of those spotted skie's!
That net is bigger than my boat! Great tips, thanks for taking the time.
Helped me a lot. Hope I catch my first musky finally this Tuesday. I'm 100 hours in and only got two on the line but no catch.
I really appreciate This video I’m not new to fishing but I am new to musky fishing I fish northern pike in Fairbanks Alaska where I’m from but I am getting ready to head to Minnesota and I really want to land a musky it’s on my bucket list I think this video really helped so thank you
How’d that trip go?
Such good info. Thanks soo much. I think my first trip will be a guided tour.
Thanks guys for the great tips and advice for us new musky fishermen.
You're welcome.
Great podcast!🎉thankyou 🤘🏽
Exceeds expectations! Way to go! You nailed it!
KEEP YOUR THUMB ON IT!
Or become an expert at reverse basket weaving. It’s up to you.
You guys are hard core really enjoying your videos an i live in Denver can't wait to get to Wisconsin
Great Video!!! Excellent information. Thanks for sharing
Good one! Thanks!
awesome vid! great tips as well
Love the video, I think it would be awesome if you guys made a video of how you breakdown a new body of water for musky
Thanks for all the budget options! Some of us 15 year olds don’t have a ton of money!
Great work.
Grate video guys! Very helpful.
New muskie fisherman and new subscriber. Very helpful thank you!
This is a awesome video . I am a pike fisherman who's favorite fish is a musky. I have never caught one but never really went for them. I am going up to lake nipping in Canada for 5 days so i would like to spend at least one day fishing for them. i cant waste my whole trip not catching any fish. Anyway it was very informative even the casting part was really great i always back lash the bait casting real and its a huge mess. Anyway i really in joy watching you guys. thanks again
Many thanks
great video! Thank you.
All the tips are covered in your video. 👏
Great video. I realize casting right and reeling right is a waste of energy, but I can't fight it now after casting for almost 50 years.
Thanks! Great video! By the looks of it, if one has become proficient in a fewvdifferent bass fishing techniques, they can manage this. No worms! I like it and can't wait for my opportunity to get out and do this. Video saved ✅️
Amazing video thanks a lot! You guys rock
thanks yall,this helped me out
Great video for people wondering about starting out. As always you guys put out great content. I've learned a lot watching your channel. I've been wondering about the net you used for awhile . So that was good info for me. I'm also want to see you make a video about the ins and outs of building custom baits and going commercial with them. I think that information would be helpful as well.
Thanks for watching. Tbh I'm not crazy about sharing my lure building processes, many years refining processes...(Lee)
this video helped me catch my first 50 incher
Amazing!!!
I live in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada and we have monster musky here so this is a good help to get them
yeah.. alot of muskies in rice lake peterborough
Thanks, great job guys. ✌️
Thanks guys.
Very nice video , thanks for the details !
Beautiful fish!!! Nice put back...
Great video very informative.
Awesome videos. I've learned a lot from them. Subscribed.
My zebco 33 is old. 25 pound line. Cheap Walmart swim banner marsh. Never had problems
thank you so much
Thanks for the instructions guys, very helpful.
God Bless....
You bet
Very well done video!
I caught a 45 incher using my bass swimbait tackle. Needless to say I now have a new addiction
I watch alot of fishing channels and I mean alot lol today's angler is the only one I'm subscribed to. Just one question Is there a reason you guys choose a full grip over a split grip? Thanks for the awesome videos.
Love the video’s
I know for bass, reel gears have come a long way - high-end, high-speed reels no longer lack the torque and drag lower speed baitcast reels once had.. not sure if this holds true for the larger musky stuff.
I use a Cardiff 400 for 8" Huddleston (big single jighook swimbait rod) for largemouth - it works great for the price.
I also have a lews Superduty 300 with the power handle I'm tempted to repurpose.. I have an iRod Bailey Swim (8' XH bass big swimbait rod), I bet it could throw bucktails (it's rated up to like 3-10oz lures, I think)
Great Video!!!!!
classic bucket option best cheap storage 👌
thanks man this helped a lot
You're welcome
very nice job
So if they are the dumbest fish in the lake then we’re the dumbest anglers on the lake 😂 putting in countless hours and days on the water for a fish we throw back!
True
Hah hah
Yep 😆
We as fisherman are dumeer😂
😭
Caught 65-80pd grade bluefin with tranx 500
i love your videos
Great video, thanks
You betcha!
@@TodaysAngler Hey, I literally just put all the great information from your video to use! Thanks a lot! blog.openactive.org/2020/08/zeroing-in-on-biggins.html
Awesome clip.
Split ring pliers:-P
I got a musky and the split ring for your line bent and I bent it back and lost the bait now I all ways keep extra split rings
Im gonna be trying this year to get Muskie through the ice here in PA. If I do it will be my first. Hopefully I can get out on open water before that but it doesn't look like that's happening.
Get out there!
Great video but the best thing is how you organized all the links
Thank you for such a great video. Im new to musky and boy is it an investment. Think if I buy any more stuff. My wife will make me sleep in my truck. Lol
Got a Muskie compre for 55$ brand new best deal of my life
Super cool gear recommendations. But um, where's the video on locating muskies in each season? What about structural elements? What about forage preferences? What about lake recommendations? What about using electronics to locate them? What about preferred cover and habitat?
I have the sojurn rod here in wesr virginia the rod goes from 2 to 10 oz lure they are not that big i use okuma cirtrix it can handle 1/4 up to what ever i use a smaller rod and use the same reel top water is the only way to go !!!!!! I have caught a musky on rapala more than anything j15 f 18 med heavy bass rod here it works well also i would not know how to act if i caught one as big as you guys do!!!!!!
Until I can get a better rod would a 7’6” med-heavy catfish rod with a 6500 Ambassador conventional throwing small buck tails work? I can throw the Penn 140 Squidder or Penn 500 Jig aster on for some extra fun. I think I have 50 or 60 lb mono on the reel. If I tie my own leaders what size barrel swivels and snap swivels should I look to be using? I had though stainless leaders would be the only way to go but fluorocarbon seems much more economical. Would the stainless leader be recommended let’s say for bank fishing near rip rap?
Where I’m from in wv. We have big musky but my 8’6 rod can be a bit long my dad uses 7’2 and a 7’4 rod. Cause some of the smaller rivers we fish have monsters but sometimes I have to steal my dads other rod from him to be able to cast but on lakes I think my dads jealous of my rod. I also right hand cast and retrieve bc all the shops near me mostly sell rh retrieve reals but with spinning reals I lh retrieve.
Ha!!
you can catch them on an ultralight... just not ideal lol. Got one fishing off the dock at my favorite lodge on lake of the woods.
Step 1: don’t live in Arizona :/
they stocked baby muskies in Horsethief Basin, give it 15 years haha
Don’t buy a new 2018 Lund Muskie rigged in March and then get word your transferring to south Texas
Red River 6 same I’m in San Antonio, no musky :(
What would you guys say about the Shimano Speedmaster 14000XTC Spinning Reel as a musky reel?
