This week we have a chat with West Virginia native, Chase Gibson. He is now a very well traveled guide that is also making a mark in the TV side of musky fishing. Himself and Brad Hoppe host the show Mayhem's 10,000 Casts that airs weekly on KOTV and YouTube this winter. As we dive into that we also look at how Chase found himself in MN and now specifically Leech Lake. Lots of great tips, thoughts on electronics and bait suggestions in this episode as well as so many stories & tournament talk. We fit in as much as we could here and can't wait to get Chase back on in the future. Tap in!

This weeks intro features the infamous scene from Jaws where Mr. Brody takes down jaws himself. "Smile you son of a b-POW"

We welcome everyone to the new year with this fantastic chat we had with Steve Genson who is celebrating his 25th season of guiding! Not only that but we dive deep into some certified classic stories on the early days of Keyes Outdoors, guiding and tournament fishing. Steve guides primarily the greater Hayward area of WI nowadays, but has acquired extensive knowledge from all over the musky range from filming and tournament fishing. From start to finish you can hear the passion Steve still holds for the sport. Don't want to miss out on this one so tap in!

This weeks intro comes from a classic TV show and favorite of the MOT crew - It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Mac and Dennis come up with the great idea of Paddy's Dollars but at the same time do not know how this idea works. It keeps the money moving. In a circle.
