Great video but if you’re going to seriously fish big water Muskies, invest in a better net. All 3 fish hung high. There’s many much better options

[@droptinetackle]

Thank you, Tyler and Sara, for putting together a great episode. We may watch this one a few times!!

[@SportsmansJournalTV]

You’re welcome it was easy with the proper bucktails!!!🔥🔥🔥

[@jennyschutt1230]

That guide is my brother!! 🥰 this is so cool to see him in this!

[@SportsmansJournalTV]

Dave is a good dude!!

[@tjkendall48176]

great vdeo and so much fun. please look into a conservation net or craddle for those big fish.

[@JoeHennessey-tp5xt]

No reason for a cradle. Bet the fish early, give it some time to recover, quick photo and release.

Lake Vermilion is a special place. Caught my first Muskie there. Started my addiction.

[@SportsmansJournalTV]

It is an awesome place!

Great video guys!

[@cliffjohnson3961]

Great show

[@bigfishbrau]

that net bag sux! and how big was she??

[@jpangling6019]

I agree...not a bad net but need to change the bag for sure.

Love hate relationship with vermilion. My pb came from there at 56.5x26.5. It went down hill fast but nice to see some of the fish coming back.

Another great episode! Could you go over your rod/reel/ line setup you use?

[@heinrichbier4759]

Thatchers stuff is solid

[@droptinetackle]

Thanks buddy, Sportsmans journal knocked it out of the park on this one!!

[@SportsmansJournalTV]

Tough to beat!!

[@Muskyfishn84]

Great trip, but how do you see your finder in the back while on the trolling motor with it inside the enclosure Crestliner utilizes? This would be a much better setup if it wasn’t enclosed like the Lund. Cisco fishing mount would be perfect ahead of the angler in the back and can be rotated/angled to drive the boat as well

Beckman offers a replacement bag with thicker net material that is non coated, PN. RN3244S. I had to replace the bag on my Beckman for the exact same reasons ya'll were struggling with. Baits got hung high, the netting ALWAYS got hung tight in the muskie's jaw or caught on the gill rake mandibles. The net has no chance against muskie teeth.
