Summary

On this episode Jeff Van Remortel breaks down spring fishing conditions in northern Wisconsin—water temperatures, spawning progress, and where musky and walleyes are holding. He shares practical bait and tackle advice (Pit Bulls, gliders, paddle-tails, spinnerbaits) and what to expect for opening weekend. Jeff also discusses Musky Academy, gear recommendations from Team Rhino Outdoors, and a teaser about local stocking and conservation efforts with the Vilas–Oneida County Musky Fund. The episode closes with tips for anglers on when and where to fish and how to stay involved with the community.
