This week the guys dive into a year’s worth of hits, misses, and “why did that actually work?” moments on the water. They chat about their go-to lures for 2025, the gear they trust, and the baits that somehow keep saving the day.You’ll hear stories about fish smashing topwater, bass blowing up on frogs, fall musky heartbreaks, and those weird soft plastics that just refuse not to catch fish.

In this episode the guys swap recent fishing stories, break down where tungsten comes from and why it's worth using, and unpack a bizarre kayak cheating scandal. Ontario Fishing Guide Brad DeCoste joins them to talk drop-shot tactics, adapting when the bite dies, fishing in heavy pressure, and using sonar effectively. They hit common angler mistakes, weather strategies, and why time on the water—and listener feedback—keeps the whole thing worth it.
