Industrial River MUSKY Fishing - My BEST DAY Yet?! MONSTER AFTER MONSTER

  • Опубликовано: 2 июл 2022
  • I was invited to help local bass angler chase muskies in an industrialized river early Saturday morning. Muskies were located outside a small tributary creek in 5-10 feet of water. Water temperature was 76 F we when arrived and 77 F when we stopped fishing around 11 AM. After a brief rain, weather was overcast and calm. Muskies were aggressively feeding between 6:30 and 7:30 am and very willing to SMASH big topwater lures.

    OK Public Service Announcement. The lure I'm using is NOT the Lake X Lures Cannon Ball Jr., it's the Lake X Lures Fat Bastard (Same thing but smaller, 3.1 oz vs 5.8 oz). I bought the bait years ago at a show and I guess I forgot. I just realized this when I ordered a backup and received a massive bait.

    Wonderful thing that the Clean Water Act was passed in the 1970's and strengthened since then, limiting the manufacturing waste that can be poured into these industrial area rivers that were once cesspools. It's amazing how aquatic life, including top prey fish like muskies, have come back over the years as the waters have been cleaned up.

Please keep doing *exactly* what you're doing. I see the butt-hurt, jealous comments and the clear-headed, on-point responses offered, but you guys are above all that, and deserve -- and will get -- 1M subs. Keep doing exactly what you're doing. You'll never please the loser 3% (that will always watch, regardless), so ignore. The visuals captured, they pithy descriptions are perfectly on point. Nothing here deserves negativity. Love, love, love, what you guys have going on. I can barely wait to see you guys catch a musky through the ice, in Western PA, so Western PA can represent agains the Michigan videos. haha. Love Michigan too. It' s PA's time though! Anyway, keep staying above the fray because you guys have lots going on!

    Great footage, and thank you for sharing it. I'm not sure if you've dealt with really big fish before, but make sure to play them out a lot more than you did with these fish. Don't try to force them up, as it can lead to heartbreak. The smaller to medium-sized fish can be horsed a bit more, but not so much with the big ones. They have a lot more leverage in the water.

    When those fish follow to the boat speedup and do a fast wide figureight and go fast underwater with the bait and occasionally bring it back up to the surface in the turns. That one that turned away at the boat would have murdered that fat bastard right at your feet in the first or second turn! Don't forget on straight retrieve topwaters, bucktails, and rubber baits half of your catches will be right at the boat! Great work though regardless I can see you got the passion of a beginner that just becomes obsessed! Rad Video!!!

    Tip for the net guy. Don’t put the net in the water until your ready to actually net the fish. With the net bag just sitting there in the water there’s a good chance for a loose treble hook to get fouled up in the net leaving the Muskie to thrash around and pull the hooks out of its mouth. Lost the fish of a lifetime once for that very reason.
