It has been far too long since we sat with Johnny Lubera, maker of the famed Lubowski Spinnerbaits! Johnny returns and we sat down over some cool, crisp Last Light Lagers at our Brewery in Beamsville to talk fishing and bait making. Johnny runs a clinic on how to target these beasts and select the correct baits during the right times of year. Makes us wonder why we waited so long to reconnect!
Topics include:

• Early season targeting strategies
• Understanding fish based on how they are hooked. How to extrapolate and up your odds
• Fishing musky tournaments and the community

In this Full Moon Friday episode Chris and Frank recap the recent Muskie Odyssey including why the guys changed the recipe for the upcoming Last Light Lager launch in May. Then John Vinen and Cole Bailey, co-owners of Angling Sports in London, ON call in to talk about some great deals that they are offering anglers looking to gear up for the season, as well as an EPIC giveaway that they are partnering with Ugly Pike and FIshn' Canada on! It is not long before the discussion turns to fishing and John and Cole quickly illustrate why they are not only great businessmen, but also excellent muskie anglers. A talk about how downsizing on Lake St Clair is a must during early and mid season fishing, as well as the unexpected muskie behaviour that they have observed on their livescopes, and how that has completely changed their approach to angling for the apex predator!

IN this second part of our discussion with Eagle Lake guides Steve and Danny Herbeck, we focus on targeting big fish in one of the best muskie lakes on the planet. Steve and Danny conclude with sharing some extraordinary stories that speak to the special relationship between a father and son and their times together on the water. Points of discussion include:

• Approaching/targeting certain depths on eagle lake
• What makes Eagle Lake fish hit boatside? What influences this?
• Herbies figure 8 technique
• Live scope ethical use
• Retargeting fish that don't strike
