  weather
• 0:35
  pattern
• 0:36
  here
• 0:36
  recently
• 0:36

• 0:38
  into
• 0:39

  the
• 1:00
  next
• 1:01
  several
• 1:01
  days
• 1:02
  after
• 1:02
  that,
• 1:02
  which,
• 1:04
  you
• 1:04
  know,
• 1:04
  I
• 1:04
  have
• 1:05
  this
• 1:05
  conversation
• 1:05
  with
• 1:06
  folks
• 1:06
  all
• 1:06
  the
• 1:06
  time,
• 1:07
  particularly,
• 1:07
  you
• 1:08
  know,
• 1:08
  people
• 1:08
  want
• 1:08
  to
• 1:09
  know,
• 1:10
  you
• 1:10
  know,
• 1:10
  musky
• 1:11
  dates,
• 1:11
  when's
• 1:12
  the
• 1:12
  best
• 1:12
  month,
• 1:13
  et
• 1:13
  cetera,
• 1:13
  et
• 1:13
  cetera.
• 1:14
  And
• 1:14
  January
• 1:16
  and
• 1:16
  the
• 1:16
  first
• 1:16
  half
• 1:17
  of
• 1:17
  February
• 1:17
  really
• 1:18
  is
• 1:18
  kind
• 1:18
  of
• 1:19
  like
• 1:19
  the
• 1:19
  biggest
• 1:19
  wild
• 1:20
  card
• 1:20
  because
• 1:21
  it
• 1:22
  could
• 1:22
  be,
• 1:22
  you
• 1:23
  know,
• 1:23
  last
• 1:23
  year
• 1:24
  by
• 1:24
  the
• 1:24
  middle
• 1:25
  of
• 1:25
  January
• 1:25
  we
• 1:25
  had
• 1:26
  a
• 1:26
  frozen
• 1:26
  river
• 1:27
  and
• 1:28
  then
• 1:28
  it
• 1:28
  was
• 1:28
  blown
• 1:29
  out
• 1:29
  and
• 1:29
  it
• 1:29
  was
• 1:30
  frozen
• 1:30
  again
• 1:30
  and.
• 1:33
  But
• 1:33
  you
• 1:33
  know,
• 1:34
  at
• 1:35
  least
• 1:35
  two
• 1:35
  of
• 1:35
  the
• 1:35
  last
• 1:36
  four
• 1:36
  or
• 1:36
  five
• 1:36
  years
• 1:36
  we've
• 1:37
  had
• 1:37
  some
• 1:37
  70,
• 1:38
  75
• 1:38
  degree,
• 1:39
  just
• 1:40
  beautiful,
• 1:41
  spectacular
• 1:42
  mid
• 1:43
  January
• 1:43
  days
• 1:44
  too.
• 1:44
  So
• 1:45
  it's,
• 1:45
  it's
• 1:46
  pretty
• 1:46
  hard
• 1:46
  to
• 1:46
  pin
• 1:47
  down.
• 1:47
  You
• 1:47
  just
• 1:47
  kind
• 1:48
  of
• 1:48
  have
• 1:48
  to
• 1:48
  take
• 1:48
  it
• 1:48
  day
• 1:49
  by
• 1:49
  day.
• 1:49
  But
• 1:49
  we
• 1:49
  do
• 1:49
  have
• 1:50
  some
• 1:50
  phenomenal
• 1:50
  weather
• 1:51
  this
• 1:51
  week.
• 1:52
  Yeah,
• 1:52
  I
• 1:52
  guess
• 1:53
  the
• 1:53
  sweet
• 1:53
  spot
• 1:53
  would
• 1:53
  be
• 1:54
  cloudy
• 1:54
  and
• 1:54
  warm,
• 1:55
  right?
• 1:55
  Cloudy
• 1:56
  and
• 1:56
  warm.
• 1:56
  Man,
• 1:57
  if
• 1:57
  you,
• 1:57
  you
• 1:57
  have
• 1:57
  the
• 1:58
  water
• 1:58
  temps
• 1:58
  down
• 1:59
  in
• 1:59
  like
• 1:59
  the,
• 2:00
  you
• 2:00
  know,
• 2:01
  upper
• 2:01
  30s,
• 2:02
  low
• 2:02
  40s,
• 2:02
  and
• 2:03
  it'd
• 2:03
  be
• 2:03
  cloudy
• 2:03
  and
• 2:04
  warm
• 2:04
  in
• 2:04
  January.
• 2:04
  That's
• 2:05
  just
• 2:06
  money.
• 2:07
  Yeah,
• 2:07
  so.
• 2:08
  So
• 2:08
  what
• 2:08
  are
• 2:08
  you
• 2:08
  seeing
• 2:09
  on
• 2:09
  the
• 2:09
  water
• 2:09
  with
• 2:09
  the
• 2:09
  muskie?
• 2:11
  It's
• 2:11
  been,
• 2:11
  it's
• 2:12
  been
• 2:12
  pretty
• 2:12
  good
• 2:14
  business
• 2:15
  as
• 2:15
  usual.
• 2:15
  You
• 2:16
  know,
• 2:16
  back
• 2:16
  before
• 2:16
  Christmas
• 2:17
  we
• 2:17
  had
• 2:17
  some
• 2:18
  pretty
• 2:18
  cold
• 2:18
  weather
• 2:18
  too.
• 2:19
  There's
• 2:19
  a
• 2:19
  lot
• 2:19
  of
• 2:19
  ice,
• 2:21
  you
• 2:21
  know,
• 2:22
  low
• 2:22
  30s,
• 2:22
  water
• 2:23
  temps
• 2:23
  here
• 2:23
  and
• 2:23
  there.
• 2:26
  But
• 2:28
  you
• 2:28
  know,
• 2:28
  frankly,
• 2:29
  I've
• 2:30
  only
• 2:30
  musky
• 2:31
  fished
• 2:31
  a
• 2:31
  couple
• 2:32
  of
• 2:32
  days
• 2:34
  between
• 2:35
  here
• 2:35
  and
• 2:35
  Christmas
• 2:37
  and,
• 2:39
  or
• 2:40
  been
• 2:40
  on
• 2:40
  the
• 2:40
  water
• 2:40
  and
• 2:40
  it's
• 2:41
  been,
• 2:41
  it's,
• 2:41
  it's
• 2:41
  been
• 2:42
  pretty
• 2:42
  good,
• 2:42
  you
• 2:42
  know,
• 2:43
  warmer
• 2:43
  weather.
• 2:44
  We're
• 2:45
  still
• 2:45
  dealing
• 2:45
  with
• 2:45
  some
• 2:46
  wind,
• 2:46
  you
• 2:46
  know,
• 2:46
  get
• 2:46
  it.
• 2:47
  And
• 2:47
  that's
• 2:48
  just
• 2:48
  part
• 2:48
  of
• 2:48
  the
• 2:48
  yo
• 2:48
  yo
• 2:49
  and
• 2:49
  you
• 2:49
  know,
• 2:49
  temperatures
• 2:50
  and
• 2:50
  fronts
• 2:51
  and
• 2:51
  stuff.
• 2:51
  But
• 2:52
  like
• 2:52
  tomorrow
• 2:53
  they're
• 2:53
  calling
• 2:54
  for
• 2:54
  15
• 2:54
  miles
• 2:54
  an
• 2:55
  hour
• 2:55
  and
• 2:55
  then
• 2:55
  the
• 2:55
  day
• 2:56
  after
• 2:56
  that
• 2:56
  it's
• 2:56
  going
• 2:56
  to
• 2:56
  be
• 2:57
  60
• 2:57
  and
• 2:58
  you
• 2:58
  know,
• 2:59
  0
• 2:59
  to
• 2:59
  3.
• 3:00
  So
• 3:02
  things
• 3:02
  have
• 3:02
  been
• 3:02
  pretty
• 3:03
  good.
• 3:03
  And
• 3:04
  you
• 3:04
  know,
• 3:04
  just
• 3:05
  relative
• 3:05
  to
• 3:05
  all
• 3:05
  those
• 3:05
  water,
• 3:06
  those
• 3:06
  air
• 3:06
  temperatures,
• 3:07
  water
• 3:07
  temperatures
• 3:08
  bounce
• 3:08
  around
• 3:09
  a
• 3:09
  fair
• 3:09
  bit.
• 3:11
  I
• 3:11
  say
• 3:11
  this
• 3:11
  every
• 3:12
  year.
• 3:13
  A
• 3:13
  cold,
• 3:13
  cold
• 3:14
  water
• 3:14
  ice,
• 3:15
  all
• 3:15
  that
• 3:15
  stuff
• 3:15
  doesn't
• 3:16
  really
• 3:16
  scare
• 3:16
  me
• 3:16
  that
• 3:17
  much.
• 3:18
  Fishing
• 3:18
  can
• 3:18
  still
• 3:18
  be
• 3:19
  great.
• 3:20
  It
• 3:20
  just,
• 3:22
  you
• 3:22
  know,
• 3:22
  just
• 3:23
  something
• 3:23
  to
• 3:24
  take
• 3:24
  into
• 3:24
  consideration.
• 3:25
  Usually
• 3:26
  the
• 3:26
  colder
• 3:26
  things
• 3:27
  are
• 3:28
  the
• 3:28
  more
• 3:28
  kind
• 3:29
  of
• 3:29
  packed
• 3:30
  into
• 3:30
  very
• 3:30
  specific
• 3:31
  places
• 3:31
  those
• 3:31
  fish
• 3:32
  tend
• 3:32
  to
• 3:32
  be.
• 3:32
  So
• 3:32
  you
• 3:33
  just
• 3:33
  have
• 3:33
  to
• 3:33
  be
• 3:33
  a
• 3:33
  little
• 3:33
  more
• 3:33
  intentional
• 3:34
  about
• 3:34
  how
• 3:34
  you
• 3:35
  fish.
• 3:37
  But
• 3:39
  yeah,
• 3:39
  I
• 3:39
  mean
• 3:39
  that's,
• 3:40
  that's
• 3:40
  sort
• 3:40
  of
• 3:40
  why
• 3:41
  or
• 3:41
  part
• 3:41
  of
• 3:42
  the
• 3:42
  reason
• 3:42
  why
• 3:42
  the
• 3:42
  fishing
• 3:43
  can
• 3:43
  be
• 3:43
  so
• 3:43
  good
• 3:44
  this
• 3:44
  time
• 3:44
  of
• 3:44
  year
• 3:44
  if
• 3:45
  the
• 3:45
  weather
• 3:45
  is
• 3:45
  decent
• 3:46
  is
• 3:47
  because
• 3:47
  those
• 3:47
  fish
• 3:47
  really
• 3:48
  are
• 3:48
  packed
• 3:48
  into,
• 3:49
  you
• 3:50
  know,
• 3:50
  specific
• 3:51
  locations
• 3:51
  and
• 3:51
  then
• 3:52
  the
• 3:52
  water
• 3:52
  starts
• 3:52
  warming
• 3:53
  up
• 3:53
  and
• 3:53
  you
• 3:53
  get
• 3:54
  some
• 3:54
  really
• 3:54
  comfortable
• 3:55
  weather
• 3:55
  and,
• 3:56
  and
• 3:57
  they
• 3:57
  can,
• 3:57
  they
• 3:57
  can
• 3:57
  get

  Um,

  I've
• 5:52
  booked
• 5:52
  a,
• 5:53
  a
• 5:54
  dozen

  striper
• 5:55
  dates

  and
• 6:00
  fair
• 6:01
  few
• 6:01
  summer
• 6:02
  days
• 6:02
  too.
• 6:03
  So
• 6:03
  this
• 6:03
  is
• 6:04
  the
• 6:04
  time
• 6:04
  of
• 6:04
  year
• 6:04
  where,
• 6:05
  you
• 6:06
  know,
• 6:06
  I'm
• 6:06
  gonna
• 6:06
  get
• 6:07
  a
• 6:07
  lot
• 6:07
  of
• 6:07
  my,
• 6:07
  my
• 6:08
  regulars
• 6:08
  and,
• 6:09
  and
• 6:09

  I
• 6:09
  had
• 6:10
  to
• 6:10
  reschedule
• 6:10
  from
• 6:10
  last
• 6:11
  year
• 6:12
  on
• 6:12
  the
• 6:12
  calendar.
• 6:13
  So
• 6:13
  if,
• 6:13
  if
• 6:14
  you're
• 6:14
  kind
• 6:14
  of
• 6:14
  sitting
• 6:15
  around
• 6:15
  and
• 6:15
  there's
• 6:15
  something
• 6:16
  that
• 6:16
  you
• 6:16
  might
• 6:16
  be
• 6:16
  interested
• 6:17
  in,
• 6:17
  you
• 6:18
  know,
• 6:18
  between
• 6:18
  now
• 6:18
  and
• 6:19
  next
• 6:20
  fall,
• 6:20
  I
• 6:20
  would,
• 6:22
  I'd
• 6:22
  get
• 6:22
  in
• 6:22
  touch
• 6:23
  because
• 6:24
  the
• 6:24
  calendar
• 6:24
  tends
• 6:25
  to
• 6:25
  get
• 6:25
  pretty
• 6:26
  thin
• 6:26
  pretty
• 6:27
  quick
• 6:27
  between
• 6:27
  now
• 6:28
  and
• 6:28
  like
• 6:28
  February.
• 6:29
  Yeah.
• 6:30
  And
• 6:30
  of
• 6:30
  course,
• 6:30
  I
• 6:30
  think
• 6:31
  no
• 6:31
  cicadas
• 6:31
  this
• 6:32
  year,
• 6:32
  right?
• 6:33
  No
• 6:33
  cicadas.
• 6:34
  Yeah.
• 6:34
  This
• 6:34
  is
• 6:34
  the
• 6:35
  only
• 6:35
  year,
• 6:36
  I
• 6:36
  think
• 6:36
  in
• 6:36
  the
• 6:36
  next
• 6:37
  13
• 6:38
  years
• 6:39
  that
• 6:39
  we're
• 6:39
  not
• 6:39
  gonna
• 6:40
  have
• 6:40
  a
• 6:41
  cicada
• 6:41
  periodical
• 6:42
  skate
• 6:42
  hatch
• 6:43
  anywhere.
• 6:45
  So
• 6:46
  it,
• 6:47
  you
• 6:47
  know,
• 6:48
  as,
• 6:48
  as,
• 6:48
  as
• 6:48
  much
• 6:49
  as
• 6:49
  I
• 6:49
  love
• 6:49
  chasing
• 6:50
  those
• 6:50
  things,
• 6:50
  it'll
• 6:51
  be
• 6:51
  a
• 6:51
  little
• 6:51
  bit
• 6:51
  nice
• 6:51
  to
• 6:52
  have
• 6:52
  a,
• 6:53
  have
• 6:53
  a
• 6:53
  year
• 6:53
  off
• 6:54
  from,
• 6:54
  from
• 6:55
  driving
• 6:55
  myself
• 6:56
  into
• 6:56
  the
• 6:56
  ground
• 6:57
  and
• 6:58
  it'll
• 6:58
  just
• 6:59
  make
• 6:59
  it
• 6:59
  that
• 6:59
  much
• 6:59
  more
• 6:59
  special
• 7:00
  next
• 7:01
  time
• 7:01
  it
• 7:01
  comes
• 7:01
  around.
• 7:02
  Yeah,
• 7:02
  I
• 7:02
  think
• 7:02
  people
• 7:03
  don't
• 7:03
  appreciate
• 7:03
  that
• 7:04
  for
• 7:04
  you
• 7:04
  to
• 7:04
  guide
• 7:04
  that.
• 7:04
  You're
• 7:05
  kind
• 7:05
  of
• 7:05
  driving
• 7:05
  around
• 7:06
  all
• 7:06
  over
• 7:06
  creation
• 7:07
  trying
• 7:07
  to
• 7:07
  find
• 7:07
  the
• 7:07
  bugs
• 7:08
  to
• 7:08
  then
• 7:08
  put
• 7:08
  up,
• 7:08
  put
• 7:08
  them
• 7:09
  on
• 7:09
  the
• 7:09
  fish.
• 7:09
  And
• 7:09
  it's
• 7:10
  not,
• 7:10
  you
• 7:10
  know,
• 7:10
  it's
• 7:10
  not
• 7:10
  like,
• 7:11
  meet
• 7:11
  me
• 7:11
  where
• 7:11
  I
• 7:11
  always
• 7:12
  like
• 7:12
  to
• 7:12
  fish
• 7:12
  this
• 7:12
  time
• 7:13
  of
• 7:13
  year
• 7:13
  and
• 7:13
  we'll
• 7:13
  go
• 7:13
  do
• 7:13
  our
• 7:14
  thing.
• 7:14
  You're
• 7:14
  like,
• 7:15
  you
• 7:15
  know,
• 7:15
  scouting
• 7:15
  and
• 7:15
  doing
• 7:16
  all
• 7:16
  kinds
• 7:16
  of
• 7:16
  stuff.
• 7:17
  Yeah,
• 7:18
  it's,
• 7:18
  I
• 7:18
  mean
• 7:18
  there's
• 7:19
  definitely
• 7:19
  a
• 7:19
  lot
• 7:19
  of
• 7:19
  front
• 7:20
  end
• 7:20
  work
• 7:21
  and
• 7:21
  it's,
• 7:23
  I
• 7:23
  don't
• 7:23
  know,
• 7:23
  to
• 7:23
  risk,
• 7:24
  to
• 7:24
  risk
• 7:24
  sounding,
• 7:26
  sounding
• 7:26
  arrogant.
• 7:27
  It's,
• 7:27
  it's
• 7:28
  not
• 7:28
  that
• 7:29
  difficult
• 7:30
  once
• 7:30
  you're
• 7:31
  good
• 7:31
  at
• 7:32
  the
• 7:32
  process
• 7:32
  and
• 7:33
  understand
• 7:34
  it
• 7:34
  to,
• 7:35
  to,
• 7:35
  I

  three
• 7:42
  really
• 7:42
  solid
• 7:42
  hypotheses.
• 7:43
  You

  know,
• 7:46
  one
• 7:46
  or
• 7:46
  two
