Jim is a great guy and dedicated to Muskies. I have known him through the national Musky club, Muskies Inc, for 25 years. Darn good boat builder too! Keep trolling Jim!!!
That's a lot of work, when I was young lad as a gamekeeper and ghillie we had to row clinker built larchwood boats out in high winds with guests in the boat, it's brutal work. And then as soon as you get to your spot the both cast and tangle together lol.
Oar trolling!!!!! Jim Olson,Tom Gelb, Doug Johnson, Joe Bucher - these guys I always admire even though we don't have Muskie/Musky in the UK, their techniques still catch big pike. Legends that need celebrating!
What a great story. God Bless You Jim.

" I have alot of stories...most of them true" lol, I hope this gentleman is still rowing
I love stories like this... passing the joy of fishing from one generation to the next. I hope that I can still enjoy fishing when I'm Jim's age!
Jim learned from Bob Ellis, who learned from me one day when he was visiting his High School friends, my Dad and my Uncle. GOD Bless him
That is a beautiful boat
One of the best videos I've seen !
Thanks for sharing Jim’s story. Reminded me of my first catch.
Awesome, fished crab lake last year for the first time for smallies. Beautiful lake
Awsome.. hope i can still do that when i get his age!! Bless you bud!! Keep it up
Beautiful story. Cheers Jim. They really are a magical fish.
Love this story! Keep it up Jim >

Keep up the good work 🎣🎣.
11/10 would definitely fish with him.
Sensational
Been a long time ago, last place I caught a musky.
People don't know how a great rowboat works nowadays
I use my kayak to troll just like this & im just as if not more successful than on my loaded 18ft crest liner.
Can someone get this guy a Whooper Plopper????????
