Fished LOTW / northwest angle many times - great video.

[@erics2033]

Love me some NW Angle Muskies. Gotta get ‘em on figure 8’s in the summertime.

[@joshwagner5414]

Was cool to watch you guys slowly figure out what to fish up there. Saddles Small rock islands, rocky points, and high reefs are gold up there. Biggest thing is getting away from the more popular areas. Up the big narrows and around the grassy narrows is some incredible fishing, so is Morrison to Nestor falls area

[@robsimpson6537]

You guys are better men than I. I just can’t make that drive, pound the water, and camp. I need a hot shower and a comfortable bed. I have now just restricted my Muskie trip to indiana from Illinois where I pretty much know every inch of the lake and stay at the cabin on the lake. 🎣. Tight lines guys and good luck this season!

[@mickemike2148]

Ah! The Woods! My happy place!

[@Stickyhookfiles]

The grind is real. Great video and some nice fish.

[@BurninEights]

Thanks for watching! Appreciate it!

[@jessicaolive7388]

New Lake..... any quick tips on how to pick which spots to fish

[@unstoppablezone4980]

Minimum keeping size for Muskies on Lake of the Woods in 54 inches. At that size, the meat is tough and almost inedible. They are an endangered species, best suited for catch and release. For the uninformed, expect endless casting and very few bites. :) Muskies are incredible fish, high level predators and not to be underestimated. Try floating lures that move like wounded mice or frogs. :) Propellers work well.

Love seeing you guys up on the woods was fun to watch!

[@josephbiebert4567]

Doug Wegner Fishing it’s definitely is a incredible body of water. Gonna have to do a full week next year!

[@BurninEights]

Thanks for watching Doug!!

[@jamestownvirginia8463]

You dirty dogs, I haven't been there since 93 when I got a break from the Corp. I prefer the walleye because I like to eat, but the big girls are there! Glad you got the chance! Great video as usual, thanks

[@BurninEights]

Appreciate you watching James! Hope you get back to Lake of the Woods sometime soon!

[@TheWhitetailFreak21]

Sweet. What color bucktail combinations are you guys using?

[@joshsommerville4733]

Nice work men👍🏻.Great video. "The Tug Is The Drug"

[@kenbrown5449]

Great video guys. Just a couple of anglers following the lure of big fish. It isn't cheap, but it's worth it!

[@BurninEights]

Thanks Ken! Appreciate you watching!

[@sgangling]

Great video. A true story of what Musky fishing is all about. Nice job with the editing too. I can appreciate all the work that goes into it especially when there isn't much action on consecutive days.

[@BurninEights]

Thanks for the feedback! Appreciate your support of this channel!

[@davemaxwell7869]

Glad to see you finally got a fish in the boat! Love the videos, Great content! I Keep up the great work guys.

[@BurninEights]

Thanks Dave!! Appreciate you watching!

[@mitchellgenz1373]

Great video, I went to LOTW this summer, great experience. Looking forward to going there again.

[@whitetail2627]

Great video guys... Haven’t been there yet but it’s definitely on my fishing wish list for sure.....beautiful place to chase Musky🎣

[@josephbiebert4567]

Whitetail 262 definitely worth it. Incredible place!

[@fordo98]

This video shows how important a perfectly executed figure 8 is. When 75% of the Muskies bite in the 8 on LOTW. The execution is critical and that was some very poor execution lol such tight turns and no hang time. Way to stick with it and put a nice one in the boat.

[@chrisroslonski4449]

How do you guys charge boat batteries when camping? Do you have everything linked to the motors alternator?

[@MsPrincesspaulina]

Love L.o.T.W. wish I could live there. Next year plan on spending a full week or two camping up there.

[@robertk2672]

Nice job! I'd be pretty intimidated going to LotW for the first time. And fear for my prop! Glad to see you got some fish AND came out with your boat intact! Cheers!

[@justkeepcasting]

Great vid guys. That was fun to watch. Way to keep at it 🤙

[@josephbiebert4567]

justkeepcasting thanks Jeff!

[@Mcgeissler88]

Where do you get the rubber stress mats with the holes in them for your boat deck?

[@VanTorre91]

Great vid boys, congrats on the win after an intense grind. We are headed up this coming July for our first kick at the LOTW can... hoping you find a few. Stay safe during these crazy times.

[@BurninEights]

Thanks! Appreciate you watching the video! Hope you have a great trip in July on LOTW!

[@ribbie204]

Good on you for grinding it out. Too many waypoint fisherman out there that just don't "get it".... I fished that smoky day and had success in the afternoon as well in different area of the lake. Cool to see the windows occur.

[@josephbiebert4567]

ribbie204 for sure! Thanks for watching!

[@user-by6yc8yl7v]

At day 4, 7:00 in you've got that "been casting for muskys for 40hours without one in the net but we're gonna make it happen" look. Awesome video

[@BurninEights]

Thanks Brandon!

[@supramurkat]

Were planing a 2 week in July next year, see ya on the water?

[@josephbiebert4567]

supramurkat got a week planned next year also

[@Gokywildcats11]

What is a good inexpensive rod and reel for musky

[@upallnyte2000]

You could hear how tired he was by his voice in the day one portion. Good Video.

[@B1GE2]

How do you charge your boat batteries camping?

[@bigfishbrau]

wait, youre not the burnin 8 guys? whats happening??? :)

[@charliechild9361]

What part of LOTW were you on? I’ve spent a great deal of time on the northwest portion of that lake, world class Muskie lake. Between LOTW and Eagle Lake, I’ve see my fair share of giants. Good video man! Keep it up.

[@griffinmarvinfishing]

That's me at 2:00! Really cool to see you on my home lake

[@justkeepcasting]

That is so cool 👍

[@BurninEights]

Thanks for watching man!! Glad you guys said hi and got to be part of the video!

[@sickly_tiger9472]

Was up there for a week this year raised 47 fish and only got one to bite. Talk about frustrating.

[@willym1965]

What’s wrong with showing the pike catches. I love both fish. I live in Alaska and I’m originally from the Midwest. I’m dying to go fish for musky. The biggest pike so for here is 43” not a Musky , but I will take it. I’ve got the burn to go. Keep the videos coming.

[@BurninEights]

Wish we could've kept all the catches, including the pike, in this video, but unfortunately we had to edit them out to keep the video length down. Hope you get a chance to get out musky fishing in the very near future! Nice catch with that 43" pike! Thats awesome! Thanks for watching! We appreciate it!

[@illmuskyhunter3313]

Is there good musky fishing on the American side of the lake? I never hear of people fishing muskies on the American side, I know it's kind of a dumb question but I've always been curious if you could do a trip without having to cross the border into Canada
