We, the Muskie Hunks are just a group of like-minded fisherman from the states of Pennsylvania and Washington that love fishing and love Muskies. We are not professionals, we are not on the water every day, we are NOT experts, but we do all fish for muskies a lot! Our goal is to bring you content from the average anglers perspective and share helpful tips that we are learning in real time. This podcast is for fun and for the love of Muskies.

E112 - Ben Stone Returns
This week the Hunks are joined by return guest, none other than Ben Stone of Ben Stone Media. Ben sits down to talk about his season from last year, some of his past work filming for Kanal Gratis and Devoted Outdoors and what he has planned coming up for his new venture which includes all types of outdoor videography and editing. He’s one of the best at shooting content that is not only entertaining and educational but much more visually pleasing than most YouTubers out there, so definitely give him a look!

E111 - Poggin’ Around With Greg Nimmer
In this episode, it’s our privilege to chat with Greg Nimmer, who illustrates over and over during this talk why he’s known all around the country for his one-of-a-kind creative genius. Greg shares some of his journey making off-the-rails and unique musky baits for over 20 years (in an equally unique way). He tells us about his first expos, some things he’s learned in fishing and in building, and what his creative process looks like when it comes to dreaming up his zany creations. He gives us a few secrets and unexpected surprises, holds back on a few others, and tells us some incredible fishing stories from the north woods of Wisconsin. It’s a click-clackin’ good time.
