  • My brother and I made 2 trips to the banks of a free flowing river in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains in search of late summer giant muskies. The water temperature started at about 72F and rose to 78F throughout both days. The air temperature reached about 85F. Muskies were found in slower pools near deep water.

    Nice job getting down in the rock and tip in the water. Great catch. Great reward for putting your time on the water. Cmon!

    Nice work guys! Wild and Wonderful! Thanks for sparing us the "swimming in boxers" portion, I didn't have my breakfast yet 😂😂.
    I hope you guys remember every moment together, as I said my final goodbye to my best buddy last week after over 40 years of fishing and hunting and lighting the world on fire. True friends are hard to come by, and you guys are truly blessed. Tight lines bros!

    Muskies usually want those gliders much faster. Pike like the pause. Obviously there are exceptions but that's why the fish half way thru came hot and stopped because it was too slow

    • @absoluteunitmedia
      @absoluteunitmedia  11 місяців тому +1

      Yes it does. I actually lost it a couple weeks ago so it’s not used in this video, but you can see a circular area of water dead center in front of the camera lens where it totally cuts the glare out.

    Are u guys in pa? I started fishing the conemaugh river near johnstown pa for predator fish. Been using big jerk baits. Caught 3 trout over 20 inches. 2 rainbows and a big brown. Had a pike or musky follow my lure to the bank one day. And had something grab my lure and completely stripped a spool of 12 pound test. Litterally couldn't stop the fish. Have it on video. Guessing it was a musky. Don't see a carp hitt9ng a massive swimbait. But then again u never know
