GMS joins Andy and Vance to talk about the massive front that hit the area. Vance comparing patterns from last year to this year. Bringing to much stuff in the boat. The "Water haul" cast in fly fishing.

We went down a rabbit hole and talked a bunch about rods, then switched over and discussed a few good ways save money. 

Vance and Todd exchange stories of boating mishaps. We briefly hit on past memories of hunting, which will make the cover art make sense.

Paul joins in and we catch up with what's he is up to. We then go into if he had one bait, rod, reel for certain waters. This leads into bait depth chat and musky show thoughts.

Brian and Jacqi from the Jefferson Project phone in and tell us what they been up to in the last few months on Chautauqua lake. It is very evident from the start we are out gunned in the entire conversation. If you like to hear about science stuff, this show is for you. YA SCIENCE! 

We start off the show by answering a listener's question. Then dive into some speculation, not exactly scientific findings to gauge if we feel its possible to predict musky activity. 

We discuss the recent huge winds, near net failures, gaffs and lifting fish by the eyes.

Andy, Vance and Todd give a run down of bad advise in a very disorganized fashion

By happenstance Charlie was swinging by the shop about the time we were going to record a show, and accepted our invite to join in. He is secretary for MI Chapter 16. We talk a little about his fishing career, we discuss his involvement in MI, and joins in the story telling. 

We have a light hearted discussion about what aspects could be considered "cheating" in musky fishing. Don't get us wrong, we are not hating, just letting our minds drift.    Not wasting an opportunity, we brainstorm an invention from our cheating talk. We then add what would be head lines that would stem from it. 

Andy and Vance shoot the bull on this show. Sharing stories about taking planner boards to the face, stiches, and talking about if there will be a show season. 

Andy bombs with his stories, Vance defies all probability with his story. GMS tells us about his three rod approach. We brainstorm storm up the Gear Man Steve Grand Slam (GMSGS), and we start to iron out the details.
