In this week's Northwoods Musky Report, Steve discusses fishing action and lists the lures that have produced best for him this year. But first, he previews the National Championship Musky Open, the largest musky tournament anywhere and the major fundraiser for Wisconsin's fishery.

One week into August and the musky "bite" in Wisconsin's northwoods remains very good, including the open water window Steve predicted last week. And, in response to a listener's question, Steve explains how he tunes jerkbaits that don't run quite "right."

In this week's episode, Steve discusses the current musky bite (hint: it's good) and explains why using O.G. baits can be very productive (and yes, he looked it up).

Steve reports from Sandy's Blackhawk Island Camp on Lake of the Woods at the conclusion of the University of Esox Canada Musky Adventure. He then explains how fishing elsewhere can make you a better angler when you return to Wisconsin.

When northwoods musky waters get busy with fishing and boating traffic, Steve turns to wilderness lakes and streams. In this week's report, he explains what he looks for in such waters.

Steve begins his weekly report discussing the good fishing action of early July, and then explains how he systematically breaks down larger musky waters when trying to learn their secrets.

Steve begins with a live report following the capture of an angler's first musky, which was caught on a minnowbait. He then explains how you can really make this lure type dance.

Steve begins this week's report with a live recording following the capture of the biggest tiger musky ever in his boat, and then reveals the fish's history. He then explains the tools everyone should have in their boat to successfully release muskies, and discusses current conditions.

Steve starts this week's episode with a live, on-the-water report following the capture of a big northwoods musky. Then, he discusses what happened at the University of Esox Musky School as well as the patterns he experienced during the week.
