How can ya tell when the fishing is tough? ...... That many experienced anglers with all sorts of baits, that many lines in the water --- and still only 1 caught and it wins!!! Good stuff man! And the ACTION really picked up these last 2 days, WOW. Honestly, I sitting here just waiting for a big blow-up on a top-water and not get jolted outta my seat ..... but hey, when it's like that -- the editing is a success (and it's YOUR channel that keeps ya on the edge). Wish more were caught but ...... then again, It's "Fishing"! Next!!! ........... Be Safe
I'm watching this again. @2:34 This time I notice you've finally changed how you work a glidebait. You used to jerk the rod side to side when you started muskie fishing. I tried to tell you to work it up and down and now you are. You're making progress. edited to add @17:11 As you cross the bridge from Duluth to Superior that is the St. Louis River beneath you. It has big muskies in it. Some big ones have been caught in the Duluth harbor basin around the ore docks and ships. Now you've seen Lake Superior.
Man! U guys were so close on multiple fish!! We also had really late, low, lazy follows that we just didn't even see until it was too late. Even had 2 fish we only saw on side imaging they were so low. Crazy. Tough bite but it was FUN! Thanks again for coming man! Next year we'll get some revenge on those giants 💪 Keep up the great work Matt 🔥
Minnesota: Land of 10,000 lakes. Minnesota: Land of 10,000 windchills. Minnesota: Land of 10,000 big muskies but it takes 10,000 casts to catch one. Hope you all come back soon.
Hey Hot tip \ storytime: Closing on 10 years ago my freinds and I went to Panama to go fish for roosterfish and cubera snapper and showed up without any clue and mostly the wrong gear.... as you do. But the group that came before us had snapped so many lines and broken so many rods the guides were allready pissed at us even before we had tied as much as a knot. But following this we got a VERY sencere and involving course in how to not break your hot dang fishingrod.... in spanish... witch we never learned but understood perfectly anyways cus theese guys had passion damn it. And here is what I learned: Do not tuch your fishingrod anywhere where there is not cork or EVA foam while fighting fish or prefereably ever. And do not load it up in more than 90 degrees if you can prevent it. I just got reminded of this when I saw your guide going up the fishing pole instead of just pointing it upwards when the fish has stopped fighting.
Hi guys, maybe you should spool your big reels with nylon, much forgiving thand braid, then you add a wire trace normally. Nylon would compensate for the stiffness of your rod + braid + wire trace and maybe make your hooksets easier.
fishing lake nipissing we sometimes get into those minni lillies casting around them 6foot deep and the fish that move and come out of them weeds will blow your mind
Man that's the breaks sometimes. Great video and representation of a true grind. That klack bait you were trying can do some wonders. Definitely a high-maintenance bait, but when it gets tuned in well, look out.
Next time! Key words in every fisherman’s vocabulary. Also something about fishing not catching. We just keep trying and love every minute of it. Glad you are home safe. What did I say? Oh yah, next time.
Hey, that’s awesome! I’d highly recommend it. It’s some of the most exciting fish to catch. When I started fishing for them 3-4 years ago it took me 70 hours on the water to catch my first ski. For your first trip try hooking up with a guide or go out with a friend that has a little bit of experience. You’ll learn a lot and might even catch one if you’re lucky. Good luck!
@9:24 A Klack Bait. I've posted a link to that lure for you many times in the comments trying to get you to use one for bass back home or in Florida. Next time your buzzbait fishing for bass try one of those.
Come on Matt you're killing me on these hooksets! I'm sure it's just awesome to be out there and obviously you haven't gotten much Muskie time this year. Just blast em on the hooksets for me hahaha. I'm also glad to see you throwing a hellhound instead of a phantom!! There are so many awesome Glide baits on the market not called Phantoms
Ive never caught one.. the closest I got i didn't realize it was on the line because it was swimming with it to the boat, as so as it saw the boat I felt a very slight tug and he was gone 😂 cut my line like he had a scissors
17:59 Matt I’m actually really interested in fishing with you. I don’t own a boat yet, however if you ever find yourself near the Alma Michigan area look me up.
Matt that would absolutely be the highlight of the year for me. Regardless of if I catch anything, just the opportunity to cast a few line with you would be EPIC.
@@SBFishing Right! A Musky on a fat topwater frog in the reeds. Probably need 80lb braid. All I know is that, that explosion would probably make me crap my pants. I mean could you imagine a 50in Musky coming out of the water for a King Daddy?
This is on leach? I was up there in the summer in 2017 and had a big musk break me off while i was throwing a spinner for bass in reeds just like ur fishing. sadly my 8 pound broke instantly and he didn't show interest in my bulldog i threw when i saw him . He aired on my spinner like 10 yards from the boat. The 2nd musky ive had hit baits. The first was a 48 on Lake Minnetonka In Minnetonka MN my first and only musky.
I’ve fished the reeds a bunch of times. You literally cast right into the middle of them. That was a big thing on Leech for a long time. Personally, I really didn’t like that type of fishing. Even the most weedless spinner baits got fouled up in the reeds on every other cast. It does work though. That technique has produced some giants over the years.
Muskies are awesome but they don't seem worth the effort 😅😅. It's hard to keep a video entertaining when you might catch one fish a day. I appreciate your efforts
Have to fish your way through pike from 12”-40” before you may get a hit maybe Frankly you don’t need the giant 8’ poles these guys are using - a nice 61/2’ heavy action pole , a good 300 series bait caster with 40 lb line , steel leader will work.
16h of fishing and one walleye is good. My friend fished for a month and don’t have a bite. I have fished for 2weeks straight and didn’t catch a thing. That’s frustrating. Trust me USA is loaded with fish
Last week I hooked and reeled in three of them my biggest was 38 and a half inches and I had one bigger break me off all in one day. I live in Ohio and I call BS on the people that called him the fish of the thousand casts.
"We're gonna catch one today and one tomorrow". If I hire a guide he better come with more confidence than that, lol. Also, what muskie guide doesn't check the majors/minors?
This little series highlights exactly what musky fishing is. You fish a lot and catch a little (if any). Well done man!
Thanks for watching, I always try to share my musky adventures even when there aren't any fish because to those that musky fish, they get it.
I fished the huge rock hump on Plantangnet in 2” this summer with my friend and pulled a 48.25”. My personal best.
Elliott Feldman nice
If you look hard enough on that hump you’ll find my lake master chip
My dad has a 44 inch tiger musky
Absolutely love that lake. Caught my first muskie there!
Good Wally lake too
Me: dang mabye he’ll catch a Muskie
Him: misses every single hookset for 15 minutes

That's the definition of musky fishing
Channel is growing brother! Been watching since below 2k! Get it man!
Thanks man!!
I'm watching this again.

It was an awesome trip for sure.
@@SBFishing I'm happy to hear you think so even without boating a monster fish. The fish are here. Come on back.
Come on back and stay longer next time
Damn you guys had some real close calls! That one that swiped looked biggg! Thanks for the S/O and putting my clip in!
I'm waiting for your video.

Amazing session bro! Cheers from Italy!

I have never seen so many missed hook sets in one video lol
Can't tell if he's setting too soon or too late either?
@@desertrainfrog1691 hard on top water, definitely instinct is to set it on the splash,
fishing lake nipissing we sometimes get into those minni lillies casting around them 6foot deep and the fish that move and come out of them weeds will blow your mind
Awesome video brother good stuff fellow Minnesotan
Musky fishing is bass fishing on steroids.
You nailed it
I think it's more like pike fishing on steroids.( The uk version of pike fishing)
With the weird lures.
Agreed.
@@NoName-jo9fk Yes, Uk pike are masive forsomereason
Man that's the breaks sometimes. Great video and representation of a true grind. That klack bait you were trying can do some wonders. Definitely a high-maintenance bait, but when it gets tuned in well, look out.
Little known fact that musky rods can also double as pole vaults.
Tough musky fishing, glad you enjoyed the trip!
Yes it was! Thanks for watching
Just started fishing and I love it! I’m glad I ran into this video.
Really nice video man I specially like the beginning where you guys started team up on those pockets in tall grass
Next time! Key words in every fisherman’s vocabulary. Also something about fishing not catching. We just keep trying and love every minute of it. Glad you are home safe. What did I say? Oh yah, next time.
No other way to look at it!
Sick video man, I’ve never done any musky fishing so this video deserved my liking.
Cool video! I'm going to start fishing this season. I want to learn how to catch these..They look like a challenge!
Hey, that’s awesome! I’d highly recommend it. It’s some of the most exciting fish to catch. When I started fishing for them 3-4 years ago it took me 70 hours on the water to catch my first ski.

I know as a huge fan I should be looking you up. But UA-cam hasn't showed me your videos. I love the content keep it up!!!
For some odd reason I thought your last video on Leech, with the walleye, was the only video from this trip. This is a pleasant surprise.
@9:24 A Klack Bait. I've posted a link to that lure for you many times in the comments trying to get you to use one for bass back home or in Florida. Next time your buzzbait fishing for bass try one of those.
I don't know A.J. personally but I know him by reputation. You have to come back and fish Lake Vermilion with him. I know what lake your fishing here.
Third is why you ALWAYS figure 8 even if you don’t see a follow
The bigtooth tackle clack bait has been a huge success of a lure for me this year
Love fishing reeds for musky. Weeds and reeds is the way we fish when we are in Canada.
Never had the chance to do it until last week. So much fun.
Nice hook sets!🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣
Was bass fishing today caught a 37in Muskie on a pink twirly tail jig on a bussbait early morning
The lament of most musky fishermen: I should’ve figure eighted!!!
Hey nice fishin. You every fished pokegama in Cohasset. Just recently I was spearing and saw a big Muskie.
I love fish hunting like this. 😍😍
i also wanna make a fishing blog here. 😊
Go for it!
uhh uh what did you just say fish hunting really you must be a bot
Come on Matt you're killing me on these hooksets! I'm sure it's just awesome to be out there and obviously you haven't gotten much Muskie time this year. Just blast em on the hooksets for me hahaha. I'm also glad to see you throwing a hellhound instead of a phantom!! There are so many awesome Glide baits on the market not called Phantoms
Muskie are so fun to catch but so hard to catch. Good stuff man.
Ive never caught one.. the closest I got i didn't realize it was on the line because it was swimming with it to the boat, as so as it saw the boat I felt a very slight tug and he was gone 😂 cut my line like he had a scissors
That spinnerbait, a down size version would be sweet for largemouth bass!
That boat is crazy! But in a good way
What's a good inexpensive rod and reel for musky
What that spinnerbaits called. Looks good for that type of fishing
Minnesota baby!
i would try a bit more of a fan technique to cover more of the area and maybe trigger some unseen followers! Nice video, thanks for the entertainment.
In Holland your calling the pike a snoek 😂
17:59 Matt I’m actually really interested in fishing with you. I don’t own a boat yet, however if you ever find yourself near the Alma Michigan area look me up.
I'll let ya know!
Matt that would absolutely be the highlight of the year for me. Regardless of if I catch anything, just the opportunity to cast a few line with you would be EPIC.
What kind of bait was he using that was making that noise a chatter ?? Somone let me know
Hello nice video please witch the rods first casting Shimano tranx reel Thank you
What kind of reel is that bro?
What Spinnerbait is that? Thanks!
What's your reel?
Mantap.....keerreeeennn sportnya bang👍👍👍
Cool video and good job on fishing 🎣
Thanks 👍
You’re welcome
Whats the model name for the chartreusse spinnerbait?
are 18lb steel leader okay for muskie fishing??????
May want to go a bit bigger
What line are you guys using for this?
80lb power pro, the blue line was 100lb cortland
@@SBFishing do you go from braid to fluoro to wire or just braid to wire?
That wakeboard in the back looks sick
Liquid Force Harley Clifford board! Used to ride a ton back in the day, not so much anymore. Maybe if I move down to Florida
That reel looks nice
Should've whipped out a Spro King Daddy or one of those new Zoom Hollow Body frogs in those reeds. That might have been interesting 👍
THAT would've been sick
@@SBFishing Right! A Musky on a fat topwater frog in the reeds. Probably need 80lb braid. All I know is that, that explosion would probably make me crap my pants. I mean could you imagine a 50in Musky coming out of the water for a King Daddy?
What combo are you using the silver reel and black rod with the green accents
That's a Chaos Tackle SWAT
@@SBFishing thank you
Have a meet up in MN!!
Wish I had more time up there to do that!
Your setting the hook way to early, with okie and muskies you need to let them devour the hook forsure then set it, they won’t come off then
What rod and reel is he using
Like bass fishing (for me) catch one good one and 110 dinkers
Weeding through the small ones is always worth it when you catch a giant.

You fly fish at all?
Check out Lubowski, they make the best a frame spinnerbaits for musky.
Keep at it brother 🎣
Nice Guys
whats the name of the lake?
Cool vid
Thanks Vincent
Those reeds look good though 💯🤜🏻
Oh they were awesome. Plenty of water under them too!
SBFISHINGTV top water action and some flipin would be sweet crush umm today sir 🤜🏻
Muskies are awesome but they don't seem worth the effort 😅😅. It's hard to keep a video entertaining when you might catch one fish a day. I appreciate your efforts
They're definitely worth the effort
West Branch in Ohio I've caught 3 in one day and hooked a bigger one that broke off last week.
Have to fish your way through pike from 12”-40” before you may get a hit maybe
Frankly you don’t need the giant 8’ poles these guys are using - a nice 61/2’ heavy action pole , a good 300 series bait caster with 40 lb line , steel leader will work.
Where in mn where were u
when he just threw the pike right back in😂 I know y’all were fishing for musks tho
Planty is a tuff lake to fish
Awesome video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the video

10000!!
#KLACK bait LOVE! Good grind boys.
Drag is loose
I have no idea what he is talking about 😂
mans got every hook up with nothing in the boat no hate😹
I live in MN
