  • Getting tired of ice fishing, I decided to hit a creek for some late winter musky fishing in western PA. I had never been to this location before. Weather was sunny with a high in the low 40s. The water temperature was in the mid to high 30s. Muskies were located under fallen trees that spanned the creek in 3-6 feet of water. Action occurred during midday.

    Your channel s awesome. I just recently starting trying to go after Musky this year and your channel is very informative and helpful, especially since I live in PA myself. I just tried a bit on the Juniata but no luck with Musky. My bro hooked into what we thought was a Musky at first, but turned out to be a good sized Striper haha.

      That’s awesome man I appreciate it. I only just started having any success with musky in PA myself during the last 12 months.

    Just recently started following you. I’ve really been enjoying the videos. I had to laugh When I realized that the video you posted, on February 27 my birthday, I was fishing right next to you for a while. I actually helped out a gentleman, who I think was there with you, who fell into the water that day.
    Really enjoying the channel. keep up the great work.

    I remember landing my first Musky on the shore by myself on the St. Croix River in Minnesota/Wisconsin. Keeping constant pressure on a big fish while trying to net it is a difficult task. Too much slack line and the fish can come off.
    What made it worse for me was I had a bunch of big rocks/boulders lol. Nearly fell in the water when netting 🤣
    Nice catch though. I'm hoping to get back out once the season here opens.
