This week the fellas get JVR back on the podcast who is an extremely knowledgeable and well rounded angler for all species, especially muskies and walleyes in the Northwoods. He breaks down precisely how this year has been shaping up with ice off, water temps and everything you need to know about the musky spawn. We even break into opener tactics already and per usual - get side tracked - right into some tournament talk! The fellas also chat in the opening minutes on some recent Livescope/FFS news in the industry. Couple listeners on the line sprinkled in as well. Tap in!

The intro this week starts with a Hot Rod quote and from there.... we will leave it at that lol

This week we bring on Adam Mueller with TopLine Baits. The fellas not only chatted it up on muskies and baits, but also on our shared passion for hockey. Got to hear about Canadian Juniors along with some rowdy stories. For TopLine Baits, Adam has a very impressive lineup of dive-n-rise, twitch baits, crankbaits, hard bodies tubes, and is always coming up with new ideas! We chat about some trolling tips and Great Lakes fishing in this one. Tap in!

A very fitting quote this week since we talked about hockey fights a lot so it's a quote from the movie Goon!

This week the MOT gents get together with Taylor Flannery of Musky Guarantee Guide Service to chop it up with some On The Line submissions. We reflect on WI Musky Expo, baits we're looking forward to using, and chat on the upcoming Watersmeet Musky Expo this weekend (details below). We appreciate all those sending in voice memos/voicemails to get on the show and can submit them at any time!

Ah, Monty Python strikes again - "tis but a scratch"

"Just a flesh wound"

The three MOT amigos put on a live podcast right out of the Hammer Customs/MOT/Sug's Fishing Guide Service booth at the Wisconsin Musky Expo. We had a fantastic time getting on numerous guests to chat on big fish stories, many of which were first time guests! We enjoyed our time at the expo and thank everyone who stopped by to support and say hey! If you want to immerse yourself in this one we recommend a cold beverage to tap in.
