We're looking forward to the shows this season, and are working with the Milwaukee and Minneapolis shows talking about who's on the exhibitor list, what the seminar schedule will be, and much more; plus we'll be onsite shooting video interviews and image galleries of what's new in the Muskie world at both shows. Of course, MuskieFIRST will also attend the Tri Esox show.

We're delighted to welcome Suick Lures aboard as an OutdoorsFIRST promotional partner. Steve Suick is truly one of the 'good guys' in the business, and he will be proactively working with us answering questions about all the brands he produces including Mojo, Suick Thriller, Nite Walker, and Cisco Kid.

Spencers Angling Adventures has also joined us as a promotional partner, and we'll be receiving OutdoorsFIRST Upload video, MuskieFIRST Radio, and image based reports featuring the action on the water from Spencer's rig regularly over the 2010 Muskie season.

Slamr's contests and the Riddler's Scavenger hunts will offer pretty cool prizes this off season, including Okuma gear, Frabill, gear, Mojo and Suick Thriller lures, Musky Armor products ( We have a pretty cool selection), Tackle Industries products, and more.

The Hydrophone project is moving forward incorporating an all new highly mobile recording studio we have designed. Just Encase has designed the carrying case for the system which incorporates a Dell Mini 10 with DC adapter, a Sony color camera, a IR special underwater black and white camera, enough battery power to record for a couple days, and a special harness to hook it all together all neatly contained in a weather resistant Just Encase clearview box. Direct to edit recording with a capacity to 32 gig on SD cards, and 160 gigs on the HD. All offering stereo multi-channel audio. Now you will not only see...you will clearly hear the footprint of each bait we test. The Ice video will be absolutely stunning this year recorded to our mobile studio AND from a MarCum and two Aqua View cameras offering multiple points of view, watch for that too! We'll be offering details on the studio, and how to build one soon as we have all the components in the Just Encase box.

We have an all new feature at OutdoorsFIRST!
715.680.9265
Call this number from 7am TO 10 pm Central Time with a report of a big fish, hot bite, new idea or technique, new product, Industry news or ANY other story of interest, and even if we are not in the office, your story will be automatically recorded for upload to the MuskieFIRST website and will be emailed to us automatically. If you prefer your reoort or story be posted as a news item in text only, we will transcribe the report and post in in the MuskieFIRST News section.

Send us a few images via email, and your compilation will be edited for miscues, etc. and uploaded as a MuskieFIRST radio segment that same day, aired from the OutdoorsFIRST Upload website. You can file your short OR detailed report on your cell phone right from the water and if we are available, we'll offer the opportunity for a full interview. That number even rings our cell phones, so a cell to cell interview is a go all the way no matter where either of us might be!

Here's how it looks using an interview with Jim kalkofen, 19 year PWT Executive Director at In Fisherman on his new WalleyeFIRST Series articles on the future of competitve walleye angling. For you MN boys, there's a tidbit or two about big muskies near Brainerd in this interview...

We'll do our best to keep your winter entertaining. The MuskieFIRST online Seminar Series will begin directly after the New Year holidays with one online seminar a week featuring interactive interviews in the MuskieFIRST Chat room with Industry reps, some very knowledgeable Muskie anglers, and folks of interest to the Muskie community; in short, the sort of folks you'd like to be able to ask questions of for an hour on a winter evening.

It's a hydrophone. A piezoelectric device, it records at:
Sensitivity: -180dB re: 1V/µPa (+/- 4dB 20Hz-4KHz)
Useful range: <10 Hz to >100KHz, not measured above 100KHz, approximate sensitivity
@100KHz = -220dB re: 1V/µPa
Polar Response: Omnidirectional (horizontal)
Operating depth: <80 meters
Output impedance: 2 K (typical)

Does anyone know if Suick will be using the wood Mojo used or go back to the more dense wood Cady used? Just wondering, I think it would be great if they got the Weagle back to it's "original" spec. Nothing against the Mojo Weagle, I just preferred the Cady version that sat a bit lower in the water.

Suick bought the Mojo Weagle. Take it from there.
