New for 2022 - The 14" Minnow from Slammer Tackle
This new crank from Slammer Tackle is going to be a staple in the boats of many anglers once the fall fishing period starts. Of course there will be some anglers looking to run this in open water sooner it will primarily find its use as a fall trolling option. You can check out the video below to learn more about it or click the link and listen to the podcast we did with Bill from Slammer Tackle.

More Stagger Blades from Musky Frenzy
In the past few months we added the new IC10 from Musky Frenzy and we also upgraded our color lineup in the popular IC9 and 8/9 Stagger Blades as well. A couple of the things that make these blades different than many other bucktails would be the 1 piece clevis. This clevis will get these blades spinning as soon as they hit the water. The other thing you'll notice is the Indiana/Colorado combo on the blades. This will produce a different thump but it will also make these blades pull easier through the water since the different blades won't flare out quite as far as your traditional double Colorado blades. Check out the video below from Doug Wegner Fishing on some recent success he's had with these blades.

How to work a Suick Video

Get a jump start on Spring with Steve Genson
Early season muskies can be a challenge, but can still produce some of the best fishing of the year. Here are a couple tips to get you started chasing some early season esox. Choose your water wisely. Find the warm water. Think erratic.
I usually start my season on darker water and smaller lakes. These types of systems typically get fired up faster which makes them a good choice for starting your season. Darker water lakes will generally warm up faster making the muskies spawn sooner and start feeding sooner. Now this is a general rule! There are years when the clear water and larger systems can get going good by the opener. This is especially true in warmer than normal springs.
Finding the warmest water can be very important. I am always paying attention to my temp gauge this time of year. Even a couple degree difference can be significant in finding actively feeding muskies. No matter what type of system you choose to fish pay attention to finding the warmest water. Shallow bays, shallow flats, northern exposed shorelines, and anywhere streams, creeks, or rivers are entering can be slightly warmer. Spend lots of time in these areas.
In general I throw a lot of erratic lures during early season. Muskies can often be lethargic this time of year, especially following the spawn. Try to trigger reaction strikes by throwing smaller jerk baits, glide baits, and twitch baits. Some of my favorites for starting the season include Squirrelly hellhounds, Hellpuppies, 6” Phantom Softtails, and 5” Slammers. Just remember to work these baits erratically with lots of pauses. Once the water warms to the mid 60’s we start to mix in some Rabid Squirrel and Jack Rabbit spinners, TopRaiders and Fat Bastards, and bigger rubber like Magnum Bulldawgs. Good luck this season and get started early!!
