This is great information. At the end of every night I loosen my drag to release the tension. I was taught to do that when I first learned to musky fishing.
Can you do a video on setting the hook. I see a lot of people not set the hook very hard especially sucker fishing.
For sure! Gonna do lots this summer related to hook setting and figure 8s!
Great informational video, on point! Nice to see that people lift these topics from time to time, when done right like this. magic!
Keep up the good work!
Solid video, Ben. Good luck this season.
Very nice spot. Thank for share this video,
Yes, this is a great video for beginners! Ben, just thought about possibly doing a video on how to handle the fish. Using the "hold your breath rule" and hook removal. I personally first try with long pliers then if that doesn't work I cut the hooks ASAP. Great job
Great tips man, seriously a fast and effective rundown!
Thanks for watching man!
Thank you for this video! It’s so refreshing to watch a video that isn’t full of trash clickbait. I can’t wait to catch my first Muskie. Gonna go this fall when the water gets cold again. What a beautiful fish.
Thank you! Good luck this fall!!
finally i found some information about how to properly catch my target fish! i just moved from germany to Montana and i am looking forward to step up to the big brother of our pikes in germany. thank you so much for the videos
Appreciate it! Best of luck to you!
Great video, I’m not a huge figure 8 guy as a prefer a fish away from the boat and the big fight but solid tips
Great video, thanks!
Nice vid. I was always taught to keep my drag set so line CAN be peeled off on a big run.....and I can see how that's cost me hook-set power in the past. Better to jar bone soon as possible
Missed a big one last year by not doing a figure 8 on about my 200th cast. Lol.
Excellent video. Very well done Ben
Thanks Sam, I appreciate it!
sick video!
Super rad video Ben 🤘🏻
Thanks!!
What would you recommend the 5.1 for what baits
Can you give any hook sharpener recommendation, please?
Yeah I think number 5 is most important. Something I learned through trial and error is you absolutely have to keep the drag as tight as possible. If it slips at all on the hookset that fish is gonna be gone.
Referring to point number 4. I’ve caught more on the 8 when I totally ignore the skie upon the follow. It’s in our nature to allow the fish to catch up to the lure. Once I see the fish I don’t even concentrate on it After all it’s mimicking a baitfish trying to escape
Agreed! I always try to speed up, doesn’t always work but sometimes it gets them going. Thank you for watching!
That's probably the reason too sharp of turns don't work, not being a move a biatfish can actually pull off. I do my short line maneuvers with the idea of looking like a baitfish trying to escape first and foremost.
Great tips!
Thanks!
what knot do you use tying to leaders
I bought a fishing kayak at the beginning of the year and have been trying to catch one all season. I've been going about twice a month and just a few weeks ago I finally had my first follow but no take. It's been a very frustrating process but I'm not giving up.
The pay off will be well worth it! Good luck the rest of your season!!
Thanks for all 👍👍👍. See you soon ✌️🇨🇵
2:34 This is so true!!!
Where ya located? Let’s get out on some skinny water, my treat…got a new rig this year;);)
I'm a kid and I hooked my first muskie but I yanked it and it took off with a creek chub I'm gonna try in 2 days he was 32 inches
Best of luck on your next trip out!!
Quick question. What line setup should I use? Wire leader, fluoro, etc.
And are there any go to baits that i should have?
I run 100lb braid to a 6-9 inch leader. I’d personally run a Stand Wire Leader for versatility. As far as baits I don’t think you can beat any sort of bucktail, and I’d also throw in some sort of soft plastic bait!
@@kanalgratisdotcom i did it. Caught a 29 in. Thx for the advice.
@@andrewchronopoulos Awesome Work, Congrats!!!!
I prefer St. CROIX Mojo musky Mefium heavy 7'2" and St. CROIX Tournament Pike rods Medium Heavy 7' and 7'6"
If I got a 8 foot for bank fishing did I mess up 😭
Just an FYI for beginners do not max out your drag if you are trolling he was talking about casting
What was the name of rod?
Chaos Tackle Assault Sticks are what I run for rods!
Musky as in rank ?
How you gonna figure 8 when your bank fishing
Too sharp of turns and turning into the boat is the biggest mistake you can make in the figure 8.
im sorry but I feel there is no need for such big gear for peopel who arnt about it 24/7 i almost landed a muskie on a super light rod and line but that just what i think and im not a expert??
It’s mainly to handle the larger lures and figure 8s effectively instead of handle i f the fish itself. Heavy line is important to save you from snapping off larger lures should back lashes happen, and the longer heavier rods will help you better accomplish figure 8s.
@@kanalgratisdotcom thank you that’s what I thought I fish for them but I use tinier lures and light gear
Heavy enough to suit the lures and tactics, but not necessarily super-heavy. But I learned for a number of pike that got away in weeds in my younger days the gear has to be heavy *enough* to be able to turn and hold them on to keep them out of heavy cover.
@@ballhawk387 yea thanks
