    Mike Keyes on the Spring Musky Grind: 26 Years of the Hunt!

    What does it take to hunt muskies for 26 years without losing the spark? This week, we sit down with the legendary Mike Keyes of Keyes Outdoors to discuss his "off-the-grid" philosophy and the mental grit required to find fish in the wild! We’re skipping the manicured resorts and diving straight into the deep woods, covering everything from early-season river tactics to southern lakes and reservoirs.  Mike breaks down the critical differences between lake and river movements in the spring, how to effectively look for a bite in "skinny water" and also in the near by deeper holes.  Mike shares his step-by-step process for decoding massive new water systems in record time. We also discuss the mission that fuels his season—his inspiring work with the MACC Fund (Midwest Athletes Against Childhood Cancer) and why the "never-quit" mindset of a musky angler is the perfect tool for making an impact off the water.  Thank you to my sponsors for making incredible products and helping us achieve success in one of the hardest sports known to mankind:  Recon Boats:  http://reconboats.com/  For more information about the Recon Boats 895T please visit: http://reconboats.com/boats/895-Tiller/  Joe Bucher Tackle:  https://joebuchertacklestore.com/ Crow Rock Lodge: https://www.crowrock.com/ Check out Chas Martin’s musky hunting adventures at: https://www.youtube.com/user/MuskyMastery www.muskymastery.com Musky Mastery Apparel and Merchandise: https://www.bonfire.com/store/musky-mastery-merch/?srsltid=AfmBOorIrdOYUYl4NZMsGGefYGIMPK0KPFp-dAvWGvxqCkEX6nhRs_QX

    Jordan Weeks on the 2026 Wisconsin Unified Musky Opener & Spawning Data

    For the first time since the 1980s, the "invisible line" across Wisconsin has vanished. Starting in May 2026, the Northern and Southern musky zones are unified, giving anglers in the Northwoods an opening day three weeks earlier than tradition has ever allowed. But is this a win for angler opportunity, or a risk to the next generation of trophies? In this episode, we sit down with Jordan Weeks, a veteran member of the Wisconsin DNR’s Statewide Musky Team and the 'Musky Whisperer' himself. Jordan wears two hats: a high-level fisheries scientist and a die-hard musky hunter. We go deep into the data that drove this historic regulation change and confront the uncomfortable questions facing the sport today.
