This week on Outdoor Journal Radio, The Doc is back! This time, to talk to us about a recent discovery he made that is going to change the way you Muskie fish.

First, however, some housekeeping was in order. Topics discussed include: Pete's mask; making a living off catching invasives; anonymous anglers; whether Northern Pikeminnow are actually invasive; whether your province has an official fish; Ang and Pete's case for Ontario's fish; provincial dirt; and how Ang and Pete stay comfortable out on the ice.

With those matters out of the way, Gord Pyzer joins the show to talk about a recent outing that is going to change the way he approaches Muskie fishing. Topics discussed include: freezing in Florida; the case for the Brook Trout; getting taught to Muskie fish by Europeans; the famous Eagle Lake; normalizing eight fish days; small baits equal big fish; myth-busting; the power of being erratic; why the figure-8 works; dispelling the need for heavy rods; light line muskie fishing; fishing mapless; and much more!
