On this week’s podcast, Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe and Bemidji State Grad student Baylor Short joins the show to give us the inside scoop on the two Leech Lake Muskie Studies being conducted over the next few years. Baylor is spearheading this project, so he tells us what they’ve found so far, what they need from anglers, and what we can expect in the future. Joe Henry previews the musky opener at Lake of the Woods this weekend. Bret Amundson says goodbye to his beloved bird dog, Mika.
