Ugly Pike Podcast

(2018) One of the major turning points of the show was when the guys were invited to PinePost Studios to record an episode of the Outdoor Journal Radio AM Radio Show with Angelo Viola. Angelo agreed to sit and talk muskies after the recording and this was the start of what would be an enormous partnership for the Ugly Pike Podcast.

(2018) Boss Shad! Paul makes incredible baits and catches incredible fish. He called into the show in 2018 to share his secrets to success both in the baitmaking world and on the water

(2018) As active editor in chief of Musky Hunter Magazine, Steve joins the guys to talk about the most successful muskie publication ever, what it is like to work with the one and only Jim Saric, and of course, his tips and tricks for catching toothie predators!

(2018) The discussion was so good that we had to keep it going and split into 2 parts. Pat is a goldmine of muskie fishing knowledge

(2018) The start of an awesome friendship! Pat travelled to come in studio for an epic discussion. Pat brings a blend of energy and experience that is simply unmatched. Beers, Burgers, and of course, muskies!

(2018) The guys connect with dedicated female anglers Erin Howard and local friend Olivia Michaud to talk about muskie fishing in Canada and the USA

(2018) This was a pivotal episode for the podcast. Fishing media powerhouses Al Lindner and Jeremy Smith came onto the show to talk about a bill in the Minnesota legistlature that would be destructive to their muskie fishing habitats and populations. The guys could not help but talk to these established anglers about their lives and careers. An amazing time and discussion!

(2018) This was the year that we met a giant of a man with a giant talent for carving (and we would later learn, guiding) fish replicas. Hans came into studio with his massive wooden replica and with it started a genuine friendship full of mutual respect and admiration. Unfortunately Hans was taken from us in 2026 far too early and so these episodes serve as a reminder to the outstanding artist, angler, and human being he was!

(2018) The guy sit down for what will be the first of many talks and trips with Ottawa River Guide Legend John Anderson!

2017 The guys look back on the year 2017 and its most memorable moments
