I'm sure this topic has been covered on this board so I apologize. I'm interested in purchasing some muskie videos but with so many on the market it is hard to chose. Can anyone recommend a video?

Any Muskie Video by Bucher, Maina, Musky hunter, or Bob M are worth a view. There is no such thing as a 'bad' muskie video, all are fun to watch. My opinion, might be wrong.

Take the cash that your getting back from the feds, buy a video camera and make your own!!

Seriously though as Sworral stated all the videos he mentioned are good

Well, Steve. I may have one that is what I consider a bad Muskie video. I got it for .99 at a truck stop. Can't remember the exact title, but it was something like Wisconsin Mighty Musky. It was made by some guy who went around the world on jaunts, and this one took place in Northern WI. It had Dick Trickle in it, and was kind of hoaky and disjointed. Showed the same footage over several times, and even had some perch hitting a minnow on a hook attached to a large snap! hehehe

My favorites are the In-Fish Musky hunts, Pete's Technique Series, Bucher's, and Bob M's. Steve Heiting's last one is the best one out in a quite a while. Wish Gillespie would put together a "Best of" video.

I've got a bad one to, I think it's called "the new muskies and men," it's got Babe Winkleman in it, and a few others. If you get drunk enough, it is entertaining though.

I'll concur that "Muskies and Men" sucks. You can barely hear what anyone is saying because the quality is so bad. From what I can tell, most of what is being said isn't worth hearing anyway.

In-Fisherman's Muskie Doctors is decent.

thanks for the input guys. I do have the muskie doctors video and I was hoping that there were better videos out there. I suppose I'll try Pete's videos next, I need all the help I can get.

Lots of good ones. My favorite two are Maina's first two vidoes, volumes one and two.

Just picked up Maina's volumes 2 and 3. Both are very good. The only thing I don't like is Gillespie's yapping. "Holy cow! Look at that musky! Look at that musky!" He's a tad exciteable and it detracts from the video. I'd have to shove him overboard if he were in my boat and started acting like that.
