The Angling Oracle
Canada
Приєднався 21 чер 2020
The "oracle" is a moniker given to me by friends for my ability to generate fishing success in unlikely situations. In reality I have a fisheries ecology background that helps me consider all variables that may affect where fish are going to be and what might motivate them to strike a lure or bait. I particularly enjoy fishing for large predators such as muskie, pike, walleye and channel catfish. This channel focuses mostly on rod-bending action mixed with the odd pointer on how success was achieved.
Bondy Hot Orba catches Muskie! (despite being fugly). NW Ontario opener.
Couple days into the NW Ontario musky opener. We seen a lot of lazy followers shallow, had some action from small fish, but doing a bit of walleye/musky combo fishing a bit on structure we had some action from a nice musky and pike on Bondy Hot Orba and Red October tube. Wind not good for sound quality of the video, but can't complain about how it ups the biting action.

Pike love Big Musky Lures!
Переглядів 6427 місяців тому
We love catching pike: they are great fighting and exceptional good to eat. Big musky lures are very effective in getting big pike to bite when the smaller stuff just isn't getting the attention. A few examples of the big pike we caught while targeting muskies. We are pike and muskie fishing in Northwestern Ontario. #pikefishing

Our friend Rob (Bussman) often assists a commercial fisherman on Lake Winnipeg, which includes filleting various species of fish, so he is very skilled and efficient. Rob demonstrates his filletting skills on some Lake Winnipeg walleye and burbot we caught ice fishing which we enjoy for breakfast. #filletingfish

Musky Fishing NW Ontario - Finding Them in a Cold Front! Part I
Переглядів 2107 місяців тому
First video of a series. First day trip for muskies and pike in Northwestern Ontario with tough north wind conditions blowing in, chill in air. Trial and error and persistence and we start to figure out a pattern. The post spawn muskies were in feedback mode and with very little pressure we found active fish despite the seemingly tough conditions. Apologies for vid (pike slime) and audio qualit...

Day 2 of musky fishing trip to NW Ontario we take what we learned from Day 1 and put to test. We had lots of follows, lots of pike and we hook into some muskies including a NW Ontario musky heavyweight. You can see the pattern in this and the prior: closer to the spawning areas and always typically near some heat-holding rock (usually on or near slab/boulders). #muskyfishing #muskiefishing

Переглядів 661Рік тому
Out of on opening weekend of muskie fishing in Northwestern Ontario. First day was some mixed weather, rainy, but fishable. Get a few muskie follows on some structural spots, typically with some weeds nearby, so try a point with a bit of a weedflat. I get strike on a large rubber bait from a heavy fish, but it doesn't get any hooks in it's mouth (it grabbed the lure sideways), so I felt a could...

Day 2 of northwestern Ontario muskie opener. I fished a spot that I knew would have the potential to hold some early season muskies, warm and further along cabbage weed growth. Day 1 was a bit of mixed weather day, but located a few muskies, including seeing one nice one on this spot. Looked to hit in the evening, but already several other musky folks there, so left it till the next morning. Mo...
31 inch Walleye on Tiny Rattlebait!
Переглядів 328Рік тому
Fishing Lake Winnipeg in the spring for big greenback walleye with fishing buddy LZ, I switch it up from reliable jig and salted minnow combo to a mini rattlebait that has worked well during the winter, and quickly tie into a very big fish. If fights so well that not sure it is even a walleye, but winds up the fight is due to it being a 31 incher. Some strong past year-classes and no-keep regs ...

Fishing in Northwestern Ontario for muskies with my friend Rob and his son Ben. Fished for a few days solo (part 1) and big rubber seemed to be the ticket, in particular Red October tubes. We picked up a few of the larger size (Big Sexy) and we also tried a variety of other baits, with the Bondy Royal Orba and Musky Innovations Swimmin' Dawg also getting some bites and looks, among others. We s...
Musky Fishing with Red October Tubes, NW Ontario. Part 1 of 2 - Solo
Переглядів 7 тис.2 роки тому
Red October Tubes - one of my favorite musky baits. Fishing solo in northwestern Ontario for muskie and northern pike using both the shallow and deep (heavy) versions of rigged Red October Monster tubes results in a few nice musky catches and follows. The natural erratic action can be enhanced by a vigorous retrieve or can slow it right down to a dead stop for jigging action. Versatile musky an...

Thanks. Maybe I'll try burbot next time. Didn't know you couldn't freeze them.
@razmoe2000 Burbot are great fresh (very firm) and they can be canned as well (not as good). Frozen their flesh essentially turns to mush. This is the reason they are not sold commericially.
Nice, for European pikes, the Suick is deadly as well.
@Esoxhunt Great that you can get them there. I picked up a fair few unrigged big pike swimbaits when in Germany recently as those bit harder to come by here.
THE "SALTY CREW" MUSKY HAMMERS! GREAT TRIP" GOOD TIMES!
FIRST FISH" EPIC START! IMHO
Nice to get one like that in the morning and big air to boot.
Dude I just lost my dad’s 100 dollar pole to a monster. We were sitting on the bench while are pole was placed were it would be hard to get pulled in on the dock and we heard a cling and that’s the last we saw of it.
Beautiful fish! Anxiety through the roof though leaving the net at that angle!
VERY EXCITING FOLLOWS!!! IMHO
Follows from big fish are highly motivational!
GOOD MUZAC
A friend fell in my boat and broke the hoop on my net. What net are you using , what size hoop and how much is the cost and do you like it?
NICE FISH" YOU GUYS HAVE TOO MUCH FUN!!!!
Why we do it! Wind was helpful that day.
THAT WAS COOL" GOOD TIMES!!!! NICE GATOR'S! WAY 2 GO" from Idaho! jd
We always remark how few ducklings there are up here. There is a reason!
GREAT TRIP" NICE FISH!!!!
Thanks jdean. Nice when the hard work pays off.
Great video well done!
EPIC" NICE FISH! THANKS" FOR POSTING! REALLY HELPS ME w/ fishing for "TIGERS" here at 4000elev in central Idaho!
Thanks for watching, Jdean. Good luck with those tigers!
RUTHLESS" FISH! GEEZ
THANX 4 SHARING" WOW THAT WAS EPIC!
I have yet to catch a Musky on the double curly tailed Red October, but it looks so good that I keep trying
They look great and sure they will catch. My concern is if same soft plastic as the RO tubes that they won't last with too many bites - maybe a good problem to have but up here ton of big (and small) pike wear out all but the toughest rubber lures.
AWESOME TRIP! VERY KOOL 2 TONE MUSKY! ALL GREAT STRIKES and FISH! THANX 4 POSTING" CHEERS!
Get,rid of the treble hooks,large single hooks are better for the fish,hookups,and yourself!Please!
Я только осваиваю данную приманку в 110 размере и она мне уже нравится побольше бы таких видео
Не турбуйтеся про те, щоб вибрати 160, він ловить велику і маленьку рибу. Я б хотів, щоб вони зробили це ще більше
Lure Hygiene!!!!!!
Nice one
Don't always have to go small in spring - in fact most of the action I had was on either big stuff or topwater. More musky pressure than I'm used to for sure (guys moving right on top of me at times) - and difficult video to make given didn't want to give away real easy to recognize landmarks.
we throw all those on the bank for coyote bait
They are one of the better tasting catfish.
Nice fish Duncan!! Maybe it is time to retire that Reel!!!
Old Shimanos are like old Toyotas, exterior a little rough but the internals still work good!
That thing is almost the size of a average channel catfish
That's why their good eating
Toad
Positive to the water release, negative to the deep hookset. Shrink the trailer hook. Same success, safer hook up!
Agree with the too long of trailer on the red octobers and nervous about a deep swallow. Prefer the shorter trailer on titan tubes but they just aren't big enough. This fish actually just was in the jaw and water release because totally spent from long hard fight way out.
How do you cast heavy Lures without hurting shoulder? I got Always pain despite 9' XH Rod. I Need to learn the right technique. Thanks for suggestions
I usually go straight back over shoulder with a bit more line out to give heavy lures a bit of a swing before going forward in the cast which uses a bit more momentum of lure rather than whip of rod than say with blades. Tubes (with lighter weights), Swimmin' dawgs, Posiedens are not all that heavy to throw compared to bulldawg pounder and bigger medusas, so I limit the heavy stuff on known big fish spots. In general I save shoulder and conserve energy overall by really mixing up lure selection and go to the heavy stuff when in known or high percentage big fish spots, prime times, and tend to use easy throwing lures when prospecting.
@@TheAnglingOracle thanks for the answer. Is there a particular video where I can see your technique in action? 🙏
@@ec7239 7:24 in part 1 video I'm throwing an orba which is a heavy bait. Short depiction but the key here is already have your next cast in mind and use momentum of lure in a swing from retrieve into boat to toss your next one. Stopping and then starting the cast from dead stop will wear you out. Thanks for watching.
@@TheAnglingOracle thanks 👍🙏🙏🙏
@@ec7239 it's called a slip cast just search how to slip cast
how much adderral yal smack on that boat fuck...
mmmmhahaha......mmmmhahhaha
dis mfr says this aint the oe...deconditioned ass..lol. he's like 20lbs...pshhhh fuc that,,,,where's my 40lbr bwhahaha
Nice video!! love Red October Tubes here is a few big ones got up there last week of October on Red October ;) ua-cam.com/video/Ux94aEtVKds/v-deo.html
Awesome!
We used that word a few times that trip. Thanks for watching.
Well done!
nice to see some good fish handling!
Thanks for noticing and commenting on that - these fish are super rare so very important to me to get them back healthy.
@@TheAnglingOracle for sure! love the videos!
Some nice fish. Lake of The Woods is beautiful.
Thanks. High water but fishing was still pretty good.
I caught one like that it was in a tiny little creek
Been there
Baby
I caught a 20 inch yellow bullhead before
Are you guys in Canada?
Yes Lake Winnipeg.
@@TheAnglingOracleI know it when you said “eh”
Bays on south facing shores of bays were the ticket typically. Cattails are indicative of a muddy bottom and the right type of bay to target. White is always a favourite and seems to outfish other colours, with flashy sided baits /spinnerbaits coming in a distant second.
Gotta give love to the big bullheads!
How much did it weigh? Nice big ol cat.
17 to 20 lbs probably. Thanks for watching! Avs are looking good...
@@TheAnglingOracle man what a tank!! Ya we got it in the bag
Great video well done 👏
What is ur spec on the casting rod ??
Thanks for watching. I use an 8'6" XH Okuma EVX (with Komodo 471 reel) for glide baits, rubber and topwater.
Hi Duncan! Interessantes Video!
Danke Roger, wir erkunden gerne den See, fangen ein paar Fische (oder finden welche auf dem Eis), trinken ein paar gute Drinks und haben dann etwas Spaß (jeden Abend anders). Die grüne Haube, die Rob trägt, war für den St. Patrick's Day - die Nacht der Whiskyverkostung.
Sick video man!! Awesome fish!! I also like making fishing videos and really liked your content!! I liked and subscribed!! 🤝🤝
Thanks for checking it out and keep making vids...
Yikes, that’s an ugly bunch. That one guy moves like Jagger.
Great looking fish though...
