Share this Post:

To celebrate our milestone 100th Episode, we sat in studio with John Anderson of Ottawa River Musky Factory and Musky Factory Baits, and Alex Boutin of Barbarian Braid to discuss the recipe for late-season GIANTS in the boat, including: 

  • What keeps a lifelong angler inspired to fish in the coldest of temperatures
  • Difference between hunting for a muskie and hunting for THE muskie 
  • Fish feeding behaviour throughout the Fall/Winter
  • Migration and holding patterns
  • Highest activity times for muskie

Ugly Pike

Ugly Pike Podcast was started in June 2017 by two lifelong anglers and friends, Chris Walter and Frank Ungaro. Started initially as a casual and fun project to bolster their own knowledge of muskie fishing, the podcast quickly caught fire and grew to unexpected heights. In under 2 years, the show has seen almost 33,000 downloads and has had the honour of interviewing esteemed muskie angling experts such as Angelo Viola, Gord Pyzer, Al Lindner, John Anderson, and many, many more. The Ugly Pike Studio is located steps away from Chris and Frank’s home water – the challenging Niagara River, but they travel frequently across Ontario in search of the next great esox giant! Chris and Frank plan on further developing the podcast and fishing all over North America where muskies are found.
