You guys need to do more content like this please. This was very interesting and very informarive. This would be a great series.
True.
You 2 gentleman are extremely lucky to be in that man's presence. He's a living legend
Agree
One of my favorite episodes! I love the stories, love the history brings me back to talking with my grandpa who like homer was one of the real St. Clair OGs. Keep doing these, keep Larry's and all the legends that are with us alive.
🤘
Fantastic video guys!! I met Larry this August at Andy Myers Lodge on Eagle lake when he presented about his adventures tracking the radio tagged muskies. This guy knows more about muskies than all the musky "experts" put together. And, what a nice guy!! He is willing to share any and all of his wisdom that it has taken him a lifetime to amass to anyone willing to listen. Keep casting Larry, you are truly a legend. Keep these videos coming Robbie and Lee. Great start to this series!
Rarely do I listen to someone talk for along time but I was all ears and even rewinded to make sure I got some facts straight. I can kinda respect the one guy trying to do it to help the area but definitely like to know the truth. I could've give it two thumbs up so I gave it two comments.
Thank you for inviting musky legends, fascinating to listen to. Tight lines from a Dutch pike angler .
This guy is real treasure of muskie knowledge. Brilliant! 👍
im very glad he mentioned my home waters the Ottawa river, an amazing muskie fishery with some high pressure spots but most of it is barelly fished. if anyones interested in fishing the Ottawa for potential 50+ inchers contact *Mark Thorpe in Quebec or John Anderson of the Ottawa River Muskie Factory*
great vid. curious about those fast growing spotted muskies though, they are stocked, but what strain are they that they grow so fast? leech lake strain?
He is referring to the Leech Lake strain, yes.

Larry! I love this man. He's stayed at my house a couple of times, and we've spent hours and hours and hours and hours talking about these old record fish. And I've bored him half to death with all kinds of mathematical calculations...and even wrote some software to estimate musky weight, with his help.
Simply put, there is not one person on this planet who has expended as much effort as Larry Ramsell has, in pursuit of Esox masquinongy. The man is a legend. Period.
Awesome
Thanks for that. I was zoned in and didn’t even realize how long this video was. Very interesting and educational. We must protect our natural environment for the future of the planet and our outdoor sports.
This was a fascinating conversation.
That was a great informative video! My favorite part was when he was talking about the study on eagle lake with transmitters.
Agree
BY FAR ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS YOU'VE EVER MADE!!! I have so many things to say and ask about this video but I don't want to flood the comments section. Although I Want to! Awesome job guys!
This might be the best episode yet!!! Thank you Larry.
Great stuff. Larry is unbelievably knowledgeable. Could listen to him all day!
Me to.
Awesome Video! What a wealth of knowledge!! Larry’s books will be ordered!! Thank you!!
I saw this video and spoke with the person who weighed Ken O'Brian's Moon river fish in 1988. I told him what Larry had said and he laughed in my face. I know the feeling of fishing for musky for 50yrs without a confirmed 50 pounder. I think Larry is simply jellous.
Thanks allot Lee and Robby for bringing Larry on...what wealth of knowledge, even in this fifty minuet video, I (we all) learned a ton! Larry, non of your time spent on muskies was ever a waste of time, you've passed your torch on to those of of us who have a great appreciation for catch and release fishing and preserving Musky everywhere. Thanks so much!! Let'em get big out there guys!!
I had planned to watch this video in a few segments but once I started watching it, I quickly became fully enamored by the discussions at hand and can honestly say like many others in the comments that this 50 min video goes by in what seems like 15-20mins and I enjoyed every minute of it.
Thanks for your time Larry Ramsell, i have been with Bill H. You are all great reps for Musky!!!!
Ottawa River HAS SOME GIANTS ! I'm truly blessed to have that in my backyard
Lucky YOU""" THE MUSKY FACTORY!!! Cheers from "tigers are a bitch 2 catch Idaho!
One of the finest segments on Muskie fishing I have seen since UA-cam started. Great idea guys and well done! My fishing gang began catch and release with the advent of the VHS video camera, many fish we do not even take out of the water any more particularly big fish. The measurement is just a number. Who cares. We are really there for the experience on the water with great friends while chasing the iconic fish. (have both volumes Larry's books and so glad for what he has done for Muskie fishing)
Thank you kindly
Sickest episode of TA so far, I watch every episode and this one truly is amazing
WOW!
50 minutes felt short ...
Felt like a 15 minute Ep. I could listen to you guys ALL DAY! 🙏
This is fascinating, hearing "The Compender"
and his knowledge from all his musky Mileage out there, really good to see him still out fishing
i could listen to you two for hours.
So happy I watched this video...I have struggled to convince people of my big fish, but Larry's formula for fish 50 lbs and above comes out to the same weight calculated by 2 other methods. 52"x28" and around 49.5 to just over 50 lbs. Thank you for this video...I just ordered Larry's volume 2 book...looking forward to reading it.
That was one giiirthy fish you had there!
I love your content and will continue to support this channel as long as you keep on fishing.... Don't change a thing, you guys work great together as a team and are soooo relatable. Your audience is gonna keep growing for years! 👍
That was great! Really enjoyed listening to him. When I got into Musky fishing years ago I read a lot of articles on those big fish and people saying they were fake. Please do more of these with Larry. Take advantage of his knowledge now. We aren't around for ever.
Really fun to watch this one. More "Legends" please!
I watch all your videos and this was one of the coolest ones yet. There's so much to learn from the old timers. Might not have been the most action packed but definitely one of the most interesting.
Great material Lee. Thank you so much Larry for the history lesson and conservation lesson.
You bet
Wow, what a wealth of knowledge and what an pleasure it is to listen in on this great subject. You guys have really raised the bar with this video.
Glad you like.
What a great episode, incredible information one of the big things from this episode was how catch and release works. Great stuff
Very interesting... enjoyable watch. Thanks for posting.👍
Best show you ever made.
my favorite episodes -Awesome
I caught and released a big red drum between 57-63 in Charleston SC around 2008, state record size or bigger and most the people I tell don't want to believe it, it even angers some that I've caught such a Giant and they haven't. The red drum is our trophy fish. People around here don't even lie about fish that big. It's like the equivalent of a 60 inch musky. Some of the formulas are surprisingly accurate. I love a good fish tail. We need people like Larry Ramsell. Much respect . Excellent video.
I bet it put up one helluva fight.
@@ManicMindTrick it got hung up in some structure at one point so I thought it was a stingray that sucked to the bottom for a minute and tried to break it off and it came out with some scrapes on its head. At that point i had locked down drag and had been going super hard on it to get it loose and kind of stunned it pulling it in to the concrete structure. A fight for sure but not its best.
Yeessssssss please continue the legends of musky fishing I absolutely love it!
I was lucky enough to meet him at a Muskies Inc banquet and won his book series compiled set which he signed. Great guy for a good cause.
Close your eyes. Now listen. It's Johnny Cash. And he's sharing untold stories of his hidden life as a world class musky fisherman
I keep a close watch on this rod of mine 😁
I used to fish big Sissabagama in Stone lake Wi. 10 miles from Hayward. This really brings back good memories. Thanks y’all! Texas bass is what I do now.
I'm down for part two with Larry!
So cool to learn from a legend. Loved this episode and watched/listened to it intently.
The tracking portion was highly interesting.
I wish you would've got him to expand on Wisconsin inland trophy waters. I expect Round, Grindstone, and LCO to be a part of that conversation.
Could listen all day! Thanks a ton for the sharing of your knowledge.
Absolutely fantastic video - Thanks Guys!
Great video. So glad you guys are finally doing this segment. My girlfriend and I were just talking a week or two ago while watching your videos that you should get some of the old legends and hall of famers on the show and fish with them. Such a wealth of knowledge. LOL I guess we are on the same wave length. Cant wait to see who ya's have lined up next.
Great video guys. Much respect and thanks-
Awesome video guys. It's been a dream of mine for many years to spend a day with Larry on the water. Definitely need to make more of these
Really enjoyed the video, thanks Larry!
It's great seeing lakes I grew up muskie fishing
Awesome video! Great information; Larry is the muskie encyclopedia! Loved it! Thank you!
Loved this vide and loved hearing Larry share all this information! Great!
If I could Id give this one 3 thumbs up! Great work gentlemen!
Absolutely agree with everything Larry talked about. Musky fishing Legend.
58lbs is insane. Filled my sturgeon tag in September, sturgeon weighed at just under 51lbs by the DNR. Was 61" long. Just imagining a muskie that heavy is crazy.
Lol way to personalize this and try and make this about yourself and your own catch. Completely different type of fish & really for no reason at all? Weirdo.
@@bc5208 what? I was using my recently harvested sturgeon as reference because I was shocked how big this musky was....I was giving props to the angler and his big musky. Heck it wasn't even my biggest sturgeon....I'm surprised you got offended 😂
Great video, you guys should do more stuff like this. Larry is a good guy.
Thanks you guys that was the best video I’ve seen on UA-cam keep up the awesome content
that was so interesting. Especially the part where you guys talked about the ''microchipped'' muskies in eagle lake
Awesome video. Great hearing from the older generations about the past.
Phenomenal conversation!
Great video. A wealth of information. Larry is the " musky" man.
Hopefully the MN DNR sees this and realizes that people care about the lakes and want to see them flourish like they used to. At this point they are letting the lakes die.
They probably want money in order to do so.
@@brentknutson608it's too bad that they can't allocate some of the billions in tax revenue we already pay. But that all has to go to help other people who don't feel like working.
Excellent video. Whether you like him or nor, Joe got to be where he is by catching fish. Very enjoyable!
Great show!
Please do this again.
I have no idea how much it weighed and it was released but in 1993 on Trout Lake I caught a 54.25in musky. I was 17yrs old in High School in Minocqua. We fished all the time for em back then and caught some damn big fish.
I remember hearing about that fish. Please feel free to share a pic with us if you want, would love to see.
This video is badazz! Love history and knowledge is power!
Please keep doing these. And also, please keep this more relaxing music in all your videos. We fish and watch these videos to relax. Not to feel like I’m at a skrillex club
Thanks. Well, the more modern feel was necessary from the same old cliche outdoor show. As in any movie the music usually expresses the mood. Musky fishing is rarely relaxing. We appreciate your opinion.
They didnt mention how Ken's fish from 1988 (the Canadian record) was caught with a tiny rapala countdown crankbait while targeting musky for his first time.
Also didnt mention the fish caught while electro fishing by the ministry on mille lacs lake 4months ago.
He was walleye fishing
He cut the throat so the fish wouldn't hurt him flopping around in the boat
This is fascinating! thanks for posting this.
Awesome informational video
Awesome, looking forward to the series
Wow Larry Ramsell is the man.
Louie spray broke the World record once, no twice, no three times! What a great fisherman lol!
Odds of winning the lottery three times
Very interesting interview. My personal best is 40". I read the ruler wrong & told everyone it was 50" for many years...lol.
That clicking is driving me crazy!
I would think that somewhere there probably is a musky that’s over 70 lbs and over 65 inches especially in waters that have no pressure from anglers
There was a 61.5" pulled out of mille lacs this year by the dnr doing walley counts
Just search dnr pulls out muskie on mille lacs and u can find the article
Heard about it too. Al
Mille Lacs, St Lawrence, Eagle, Vermillion and great lakes areas probably all have one of that class.
Yep, like you learned here, a 18year old fish weighing that much because it was sterile,just think there could be one 40yrs. Old double that in size, remember a fish continues to grow almost to any size if conditions are correct, I bet the new world record will be a sterile fish, probably big enough to bite your head off.
should we keep 1 scale from every musky to send in for testing?
Great show!! I've fished Eagle as a kid ,I had a walleye on and it got hit and killed (walleye) but you could see how wide of bite it had , no record but nice one .30 in limit at the time ,the second they hit 30 in they were killed if caught, I didnt like that because the mount in the lodge was as long as an oar. A couple years ago I went to Vermilion and I knew it was stocked with leech lake spotted but the one I caught was barred and the old lodge mount was barred, it could have been stocked ,My catch didn't get measured but it was about 46-47in , put up a heck of a fight , it wasn't a 50 but it was sure a pretty fish , not a mark on it. I noticed something there you discussed,people would pound the shallows by islands or shore but I marked a few big fish in 20-24 ft in main body where I also marked lots of cisco? suspended in cloudsof them bottom had millions of baby perch some of these may have been bigger but didn't catch any of size just wanted to see what they wereBut that was a great show , I wish there were more of these type.
This was an awesome video thanks for sharing!
Great timely video, was reading last week how sometime back Pete Maina got ostracized for disputing the records, my son and I love your videos, heading up in two weeks to try for the next record, keep it up
Awesome video guys! Such a bummer that people feel the need to cheat the length and weight of fish. Just let it be what it is and be happy!
First off thank you for providing such a different & insightful perspective on musky fishing. I enjoyed the detail of Larry’s work & how he has used that info to inform his understanding, perspective, & opinion on the fish, resource, conservation, and sport of musky fishing. Great job guys, & I look fwd to ur future legend editions. Tight lines!!
Did a question about art bearfoot 59 pound 11 oz French river musky come up, seen the mount huge body but small head now you got me thinking about from the interview.
No
Extremely interesting video guys! I thoroughly enjoyed
Hay Lee do you possibly remember the story printed in musky hunter magazine like 25yrs ago about 2 fish called big mary and little mary?? Eagle lake? That's what pretty much started it for me. Great video!!!
Yes
Awesome video guys! Muskies Canada has a fair bit of data on tracking Muskies with transmitters. With today's technology and increase in Musky fisherman i believe the world record will be broken.
You guys should come to mill lake in Killarney, you guys got a good chance of catching a 52+incher and you guys can rent a cabin.
Awesome!!!
Thanks Jason!
HANDS DOWN BEST VIDEO!!!!!!!
Outstanding.
I’m from Michigan and it’s real cool to know the legit world record is held not too far from me
I was just witness to a 57.5" caught last week and it weighed mid 40lbs. I live here on Georgian Bay. The next world record will come from here or the Saint Lawrence i believe.
Next record is coming from Green Bay thousands over 50 inches
The boys need to come up to Ottawa fish our waters, Bill Craig still holds the largest live release muskie at 62.25 inches
Awesome video. Keep up the great work.
Glad you liked!
A 61-1/2 inch fish was caught by accident electrofishing at Mille Lacs in 2019 if that is correct. Not a super chunky fish though.
Wish we would have heard his take on the st Lawrence musky record. Supposedly 69lbs 15oz at 64.5 inches long.
There is a story in the Western UP of Michigan that tells of a Musky weighing 100 lbs caught in a gill net in Lake Superior in 1899. Supposedly a photo of the fish hung in a Ranger Office for about 10 years before the building burned down.
Mind blown! I've been to Hayward many times and seen those in person, spent time with John Dettloff & had no idea!
