Re: New sonar/gps suggestions

Side imaging is especially good for open water fishing when looking for suspended baitfish and muskies. It can also be really good for mapping structure/cover without actually driving back and forth over the structure/cover. You can simply drive alongside the structure/cover, map it with the side-im...

Drill a hole in the trigger as a hook keeper maybe? I know someone that does that to all his rods.
That guy must be crazy for drilling into $400 Legend Tournaments!

Awesome! Definitely going to look into that this fall. Any word on when it will close for the year and the policy on alcohol?

Doesn't help the article has the incorrect dates for the season - "(April 1 through March 31)" And a new license should just be $3, but printing a new musky tag definitely could be a loop hole for people wanting to keep more than one musky. I believe there isn't a record of who gets the musky tag an...

Most likely will want to go longer that that. Like Hemi, I make mine around a foot long.

It might take you a little to get it down, but it is pretty easy after getting the hang of it. I use a small round nose pliers to make my bend and then basically follow this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OLEtW18HAI I don't do as many twists/wraps as he does, but you definitely can if you w...

I've used the Revo Toro reels for a couple years now and love them. The new Revo NaCl is pretty good as well, but I definitely would look into getting the Lexa 300 or the new 400 size. Fished the 300 a couple times this fall and absolutely loved them and their design seems to fit a human hand a lot ...

Just a heads-up, LSC has been pretty brutal with very high winds the last week or so. If ya plan to go out there, make sure your rig can handle it.

What size dawgs are you planning on throwing? I love the 'Big Dawg' rod from St. Croix for mag-dawgs and pounders, but it is a little pricey. The 9'3" Okuma EVX rod is a great rod for mag-dawgs and can be used for pounders.

Just keep at it. Three times out without catching one isn't that long actually; that's just muskie fishing. What kind of rod and reel are you using? I would suggest upgrading to 80-100lb superline and then at least 124lb wire or 150lb fluoro. For dawgs and other plastics/jerkbaits I would use wire l...
