Happy New Year to anyone crazy enough to take care of business in 2010 with a fly! Same to the rest of you musky chasers...maybe you will get the urge to take a walk on the fly side this season too!

Once you go fly nothing else will do.

One of our Musky Tribesman Lee Church just wrapped up his first fly fishing film - The Musky Chronicles.

Here is a link to the trailer:

Great video! I think the fly fishing for musky bug is creeping back into me. I have always wanted to land one on the fly rod; I've hooked them but never been able to land them on the fly rod.

Anybody have feedback/recommendations for a large arbor reel in the "value" price range. I have always had a tough time dumping lots of $$$ in my fly reels. I am looking to setup a rig with a sink tip and thinking of picking up a 10wt. (maybe a used Sage Xi2) and reel ____ . I have always used Redington & Winston rods and only Redington reels, so don't have much experience with other products.

Musky will chase and hit flies as well or better than hardware. I took 6 up to 42" on Lake of the Woods, Ontario, in June of 08, and my hardware buddy only took 4. He tried my Marabou r/w streamer the next summer for 1/2 a day out of his 7 day trip, and caught his biggest of that trip, 45".

For the guy asking about rods, I agree with a 10 wt. Try Temple Fork, available at www.feather-craft.com, ($160.00) or look for a complete outfit on my web site (www.pikeflyguy.com). You don't need a top-end reel for musky or pike, either. I've written a book, "Toothy Critters Love Flies," ($16.95) available at my web site or at Amazon.com, that tells you all you need to know about catching big pike & musky on flies, including recipies for the best, easy to tie streamers. Look at the site to get my bona fides.

Tight Lines.
