The managing editor of Musky Hunter magazine will be joined by several other A-list anglers to lead presentations at the two-day Musky Fishing Seminar at Nicolet College March 24 and April 7. Over the course of the two Saturdays, 16 different topics will be covered, with instruction ranging from beginner- to expert-level. “If there’s a secret to catching muskies, and catching them regularly, it’s putting together a whole bunch of little things and doing them correctly,” said Steve Heiting, who has sat in the editor’s chair of Musky Hunter magazine for more than 23 years. “We’ll cover the most important aspects with the goal of helping participants put more muskies in the boat.” The seminar will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day, with an hour for lunch. Topics will include: - choosing the right lures for a variety of conditions. - understanding how musky movements change during the different seasons. - live bait tactics. - landing and releasing muskies that will keep you and the fish safe. - mastering the boat-side figure-8 technique. - understanding lake structure. - weather conditions and feeding windows. - musky biology, distribution and stocking. - local and regional hotspots. - getting the most from your electronics. - selecting and maintaining the right boat, rods, and reels. “When you can understand and then master the fundamentals, you can go out and hit the water and expect to catch fish, not simply hope that you catch fish,” Heiting explained. Cost for adults is $65 for one day and $100 for both days. Cost for anyone 18 and under is $25 per day with an adult registration. Each participant will receive a gift bag, lunch, and be eligible to win a variety of door prizes. For more information, visit nicoletcollege.edu/musky.
