Hang-Time Muskies

The term “hang-time” has been used in the sport of football most often, and it usually refers to how long a punt or kick hangs in the air from the moment the player kicks or punts the ball until a receiver catches it. Generally speaking, a longer hang time is preferable to kickers/punters because it allows defenders ample time to run down field to intercept the ball carrier before he has had a chance to advance very far. The same term applies to angling, but is used in a different fashion.

The Treble Trick-Out Musky Lure Tweak

Most hard-bait muskie lures are fish catchers right out of the box, but there are going to be certain times and situations where some simple minor tweaks make them far more effective for specific applications. Let’s focus on one of them here — reducing buoyancy to create more “hang time” and even attain neutral buoyancy suspension.

Small Details Equals More Muskies
In today’s world of advanced angling tactics and high tech gear that is now available to musky anglers, it sometimes becomes easy to forget the little things that are important for us to be consistently successful on the water. These small, yet very important, details I will be discussing in this article are every bit as important as your lure selection, lake selection, or choice of boat, etc. Let’s face it, many of us who have careers, that do not enable us to be on the water full time, need to keep sharp when it comes to the small details in order to consistently boat muskies year in and year out. When our actual “on the water” time is somewhat limited due to our work or family schedules, it becomes imperative that we stay on top of our game by paying close attention to many of the smaller but very important details that ultimately make or break our success when it comes to landing more muskies each year.

Live Imaging Musky Rite-Hite Turret
It is undeniable the impact that live imaging has had on modern musky fishing. From the second I heard grumblings about this new technology I was more than intrigued. The ability to see muskies, but more importantly forage and the bait fish in real time was too much for me to resist. As an early adopter of live imaging on my musky boat I have spent countless hours staring at the screen of my Garmin unit. Cast after cast lures come in but every now and again a musky is in hot pursuit of a client’s presentation and the ability to give them a few seconds early warning has become invaluable.
Winterizing & Protecting Your Musky Fishing Rods/Reels!
As the fishing season is winding down in the North Woods and people turn their attentions to hunting and warm fires, remember to take all of that fantastic gear you bought and store it right! Throwing your pole in the garage is a thing of the past when a nice super reel and rod might cost hundreds of dollars. We need to take the time to winterize our treasured sidearm and keep it in pristine condition for years to come. Here are some inside scoops on preserving your rod and reel with some tips from the Musky Shop!
