Took some time off from everything and all things musky related.. terrible at responding to DMs and texts. Sorry for that but such is life.. still slowly tying lures but my real job requires far more from me now than before. Anyway.. shout out to @rdawally and @chillinwithbreezy for convincing me to take a day to fish. Buzzer-beater musky up shallow just off of moon.. was rotating thru baits all day and Damian’s @d.c_baits double 10’s got bit in the end. Shout ouuut @muskiesontap / @sugsfishing for the lucky hoodie (2 for 2 skis in it so far) and @vincentbutoutdoors for the lucky hat 😎🤙 you guys are awesome.

Not the monster I came for but happy to of put one on the board this weekend on my French river adventure. But this fish was actually caught on Nippising while out there exploring. This fish ate the 12” Cisco rattle minnow!

Cant complain on the long weekend, had 1 interaction each day just couldn’t get them to commit. Did a lot of studying and auto charting while dropping countless pins for my next trip up!

Until next time!

Fought the rain all day long, struggled to keep my phone alive so turned it off just incase I needed it. And I did!

Another high 40’s kawartha fish! Let’s hope this big fish train keep rolling 🚂 🐉 🐉 🐉

This fish surprised me out of no where and hit the @redoctoberbaits tube first turn of the figure 8!

Also managed a small fish earlier in the day that ate my @dcbaits Cisco coloured blades.

Here is a pretty special bait. Honoured to be sending this one off to a new home and hoping this lure will have a shitty life periodically inside a monsters mouth!

Double RATTLE/GLOW baby skunk!🦨

Haven’t shown much of these 8” jointed (rattle in the tail) yet but here are some for a buddy @mash.kustoms !

The bait on the left was based on the snake photo he sent me.

Hoping to be showing you some net photos of my jointeds I made for myself later this season!

I definitely went more of the casting route this year but don’t let that fool you. Still pumped out a 2026 line up of new trollers to try out.

This one I’m most excited for and I kept it simple with this one. Just a simple lip angle change. She’s got lots more action and well… from the fish pictures I’ve gathered over the years…. I can tell ya they fire off every once in a while with a decent musky or two lol

Counting down the days till opener!
