When the big wedding day, love to see Hidi fish with you guys . God Bless 🙏🙏🙏

[@shanemoore1450]

The muskie fishing day we all dream of! Keep sticking them!

[@scottsanders9090]

A coveted early season experience...very much enjoyed this outing...

[@larrystolzman3231]

Awesome video! To hear Lee say he likes early season is a joy for us all. Keep catching fish. Fans know the big ones will be there. This summer I plan to take my grandkids Muskie fishing for the first time. They are good fishermen at 10 and 12 for smaller fish. To make it easier on me I plan on having them use "heavier" spinning gear and will show them this video for its educational value. Thanks for providing what they need. Grandpa can't wait! Let the adventure begin - soon!

[@TAFilms]

Another awesome day for you guys!

[@MattVavrochFishing]

Can't ever beat a four fish day! Awesome video looking forward to more musky stuff this season!

Missed one yesterday first time out this year. Getting ready for the northern opener in green bay. Great vid guys keep up the great work.

Now that was badass

Nice edits Robbie, great video! Can’t wait for more

Great videos guys. This spring I found your channel when I decided to try and catch my 1st muskie. Very informative and entertaining. Thanks

[@TodaysAngler]

Glad you like

[@dylanflogel2692]

I was watching a several of your videos today and about half way through this video I realized you were fishing a lake that’s only about 45 minutes from where I live. Never tried for musky but apparently I need to try! Awesome video

[@dougwegnerfishing]

Nice work boys!

[@dacrosber]

Im from Madison and I really enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work!

[@alanbuvelot831]

Awesome video of Lee's musky jumping in and out of the net. Your videos are just cool and we'll made!

[@TodaysAngler]

🙏

[@mitchellgenz1373]

Great day on the water, I fished that lake a few years ago, great body of water. I hope to get out in the next week or 2.

[@plur4e1]

Musky season is still closed here in Ottawa Canada, but did catch a small one like Robbie's while walleye fishing last night on a jig and pink worm. Great to see the early bit is on for you guys.

[@sgangling]

Love the video👍👍

[@Dbars19]

good to see you boys catchin musky again. caught a 43 in the back water of a lake where white bass were running.

[@wilburr6491]

i recently saw a nice tiger muskie while i was fishing. He was just swimming in the shallows and then turned around. It was a really cool experience.

[@CharlieCox1313]

Dudes!!! We’ve been going there the last 6 years!! Normally hit that early spring bite I’m guessing same time you went there. This year we went 3rd weekend in May had that post spawn 64 degree water and got skunked. Loved this video!! See ya around 😎👍🏼

[@bigfah2506]

Awesome

[@kelvin0mql]

REALLY liking the vid editing style on this. The vid itself is as interesting as the action and rig descriptions. Nice work, fellas.

[@TodaysAngler]

Very kind

[@jbirdfishes]

16:56 the wake coming up to that lure split seconds prior to the bite! 😲😳 amazing!

[@TodaysAngler]

For sure

[@chadwick634]

She spotted ya’ll when she flashed on the 6” circus perch. 🤫

[@johnpaschal3217]

That flip the first was dif was crazyyy

[@woodsandwater123]

Saw quite a few porpoising this weekend and had one on for a few seconds, but twasn't meant to be. Started the morning fishing in May snow and 20mph winds here in PA. I was creek fishing for prespawners.

[@gregoryhunts3006]

I always keep a saw in my truck so that tree would have been easily cut and moved. I've been out fishing everyday and man have I been catching the big trout. I need to get out and try for muskie soon.

[@thelonesomefisherman7425]

I'll make you feel better, Lee, about that first missed bite on the sucker. It wasn't a muskie you missed but a little snot rocket pike. Both of you guys got your muskie mojo working now.

[@jeremynewhouse6530]

A year or so back my son caught a muskey about the same size as the first one. You would have thought that thing was 10ft long. He went nuts, it’s one of my favorite memories of fishing with him. We were bass fishing in a small lake and didn’t even realize they were there.

[@TodaysAngler]

Awesome

[@BobStanbrough]

This is one of my favorite lakes to fish.

[@colingreen8342]

Bob Stanbrough what’s the lakes name?

[@BobStanbrough]

@@colingreen8342 This is Twin Valley is Governor Dodge State Park.

[@brookeroberts588]

I wish you did a LIVE Stream on your Musky trips. I know logistically it might be difficult, but would sub for sure!

[@hotkey180]

G'day guys awesome job boys, I have not been fishing for 40 day now! Here in Victoria Australia we can not fish or hunt, I'm going crazy I need to fish for my PTSD. I no it's dumb but fishing is what I do to help me, but anyway great job guys it looks like you guys might have a awesome, Musky season ahead of you good luck stay safe all the best take care.

[@daigox4118]

Dwayne Wade give that Dive a 9/10 lol 😂😂😂

[@WesleyKennedy]

I had a 40+ Muskie take a swipe at a bluegill chatterbait close to the boat launch on this lake. Only a few feet away from shore when it was flooded. I was smart and did a turn and he swiped again and took the tail right off. That got the blood pumping. 😃

[@frankhunt5018]

You guys need to add a hacksaw or an axe to your "tackle box", lol.

[@blakehilger6825]

You guys need to come fish mead lake thorp Wisconsin there are absolute huge muskie in there

[@calvinwormley966]

We got a 46 in the boat last weekend

[@RworldKM]

They say that the muskie is the fish of a thousand casts, and here you are catching them like no tomorrow.

[@remytusen7188]

Love how they liked all the comments.

[@TodaysAngler]

We care what you say and try to answer your questions.

[@donalderickson3385]

I caught my first Muskie ever this week, 25inches, I wasn't even fishing for them but it was a great fight so now I have been binge watching your channel trying to learn more about them. I'm hooked now, just trying to figure out how to get the wife to let me buy more gear.

[@gonefishn365]

That's generally how it starts. I wanted to be bass pro when I was a kid. Then I fell in love with pike and forgot about the bass career. I knew about Musky and really wanted to fish them but I didn't think I had access. A legitimate St Clair boat wasn't in my future. I randomly caught a Musky in a little river and the obsession was on. Thousands of dollars, a ton of research, a few boat upgrades and about 30 total fish later I'm more obsessed then ever.

[@TodaysAngler]

Awesome

[@muskymadness927]

What knot do you guys use to attach to your leader?

[@GregK9]

That Husky jerk *had* a center treble hook, yes? Did you upsize the hooks?

[@berganator]

Nice ! What was water temp for this time of year?

[@bigj3086]

Great job! Mine has been muuch slower!

[@excaliburgaming8857]

Still nothing caught for me I'm trying though I did get a good tip about rubber have to try that next time I get out.

[@hagerfishing8431]

Ha muskies are the best

[@timpopp6474]

Got a couple the one time I was out this year. 32 and a 40 lake has been decent around here in nwpa lots of fish caught already

[@TodaysAngler]

Cool

[@KMCxGaming]

Been out 3 times haven’t gotten a bite really cold water here still tho

[@Precisionreelworks]

Would love to know what lake that is. Been trying for a while to find a more unpopulated lake in southern WI

[@thadhinshaw9105]

You should try Governor Dodge State Park (Twin Valley Lake).

[@gilberts.7752]

Love the Vids guys keep er coming! I got a 46" pig on opening day on a 10" jake can't figure out how to share a pic?.. where were you guys in this one?

[@xinfinitebeingx6776]

Secret spot 😉lol

[@Hshshdfb]

No way you were in my hometown fishing!

[@approachingtarget.4503]

Didnt gey out until 1pm. Lost one rignt away before the clouds moved in. It tried to take a custom bucktail just under the surface in 2' of water. Fish beds where empty. I figures it was because of a musky near by. Fished the rest of the day and covered more area i have ever in one day. No signs of fish after 2pm till dark. Water temps not over 52° yet. But they spawned atleast two weeks ago on the river. Spoke with many people and luck was down.

[@charliechild9361]

I’m a big fan of downsizing baits early in the season but I also tend to alternate my leader and go fluorocarbon. I think the flexibility of fluorocarbon and the clarity of them make them very desirable in early season, shallow/clear water fishing and allows me to present my artificials at the utmost level. What are your guys thoughts on fluorocarbon leaders?

[@TodaysAngler]

As long as they are 80lb or more.

[@ericsfishingadventures4433]

Beautiful amazing video and fish! That 4th musky was a stocked fish? I noticed the fin was clipped? Keep up the great work guys!!! 👍

[@trevorolson997]

They completed their study last spring on age structure and population. Probably from that.

[@Plman]

👍

[@johnnyj3137]

Hey I picked up a rod from you guys just last year and it dropped on the floor. Do I have to be worried abt it breaking on the next strike?

[@TodaysAngler]

Probably not. Either hitting rods together casting and the side of the boat is about the worst.

[@frankhunt5018]

Great stuff, I'm living vicariously thru you guys and KZbin until my boat gets out of the shop. Robbie, it was great to see you catch that musky on the "light" Shimano setup. Would the 7'1" MH work as well as your Med for the lighter lures? I have a Stradic CI4+ for bass/pike and never thought about using it for Musky. What is the biggest Musky you think that setup can handle? Finally, I'm a little disappointed that so many of the Shum Shum Regulars (7.5") are still out of stock at Chaos Tackle, hopefully they get more in soon.

[@TodaysAngler]

That is a Medium Heavy rod with CI4 Stradic.

[@frankhunt5018]

@@TodaysAngler Okay great, thanks for confirming because the link said Medium and the pull down menu had numerous options so I wasn't sure. What size Musky do you think that setup can handle?

[@johnpietrowski9598]

In 2 days 2 weeks ago I had but 1 follow.but it was on a new bait made by a local lure maker out of marathon,ny.

All 100% stocking in this lake. May have been last fall stocked.

What body of water?

[@ssmitty80]

Question about the GoPro set up... how do you protect the battery and micro sd card from water / weather? The hero black 8 doesn’t have a way to have a power cord without exposing all the internal “guts” is it like a waterproof putty or something?
