Muskie opener is only a couple weeks away, and I couldn't be more excited! The weather this spring is shaping up to be an incredible start to the muskie season. A nice stretch of weather before opener will have weed growth looking really good. I expect the 35-42 inch males will be using the weeds and the big females will be in open water! One thing I love about early season musky fishing is that the fish can be anywhere from the shallow weedy flats, out into open water basins, and everywhere in between. Book your trip now, I have a couple of dates left on the calendar!

Walleyes and bass are active on the deep weeds. We're getting them with a very simple tactic, the Ned rig! Probably one of the easiest ways to catch fish! Musky opener is approaching quickly and things are looking great for the opener. I still have a few dates availabe in June!

Full moon and new moon time periods can help influence a very consistent muskie bite. With the June season opener just around the corner, I'm starting to fill dates in these time frames. Don't wait, book your trip before it's too late. Be sure to ask about the moon dates.

We are right at the start of the winter musky show season, and a lot of you are looking for new musky rods to add to your arsenal. With a market that is flooded with rod options, there is a lot of brands out there to choose from, and it can be overwhelming to say the least. Lots of questions to find the answers to when it comes to buying a new rod. What brand, what length, what power? etc. My go-to rod brand is Tackle Industries, I've trusted these rods for the last 6 seasons. With lengths that vary from 7'6 all the way up to 10'6 telescoping models, you will be able to find a rod that fits your needs. Whether you are looking to fish from a kayak, looking for a new do-it-all rod, or one to fish specific baits with, you will find it from Tackle Industries. As a guide, I need a variety of lengths and powers to meet the demands of the anglers that fish with. These rods are well built, light weight, and extremely comfortable to cast for long hours. I'll be at the Minnesota Muskie Expo hanging out in their Booth March 7-9th 2025, stop by and chat musky rods. If you want to order online you can use coupon code muskygeek15 for a discount.
