Producer of Simply Fishing Television is a 30-minute series, FishnStixTV broadcast on FaceBook and 5@5-LIVE airing Wednesday evenings at 5:00 CST.
On the 19th of August 2010 history was made when Bob Mehsikomer became the first angler in the world to achieve the Cast-To, Catch and Release of 100 Muskies over the 50” benchmark, all on artificial and ALL released. Today that number stands at 117. That is the reason many in the muskie world claim him to be the best of the best. Although if you ask him, he will tell you he is simply a committed angler chasing the most elusive apex predator in North America’s fresh waters.
The time and devotion to the pursuit of the muskie, bass, walleye, northern pike, lake trout, tarpon, sailfish, roosterfish, peacock bass, and many other species are what makes this man the skilled angler he is. He studies the environment, the location, forage and the predator at a level others could only dream of. The devil is in the details Bob always says. When asked by a would-be potential sponsor what made him so efficient on the water, he simply stated when you do it for a living, and living depends on eating, you learn fast and thoroughly. Every cast, every fish and every mistake are recorded in his day-to-day life on the water.
Bob Mehsikomer’s Simply Fishing series is the quintessential totally authentic, action-packed, trophy fishing series that everyone is trying to catch!

Testimonials
Mark: Lancaster MI.
I started watching Bob when I was 13 years old. I lost me father when I was 17. Had it not been for watching Bob and learning there is more to life, I am quite sure my life today would have been much different. My kids and I catch 5@5 almost every week live. If not, we catch the replay on Facebook. Thanks to Bob and his crew for all they have done.
Mike: Mora MN.
I have watched many fishing show, for many years and without a doubt, I gain more knowledge from watching Mr. Mehsikomer's programs than any others. Down to earth, great educator.
Steve: Denver CO.
When muskies came into Colorado, I had very little interest in the fish. Then, I caught an episode of Simply Fishing where Bob Mehsikomer caught fish after fish and they were all huge. That show made me catch the muskie bug and to this day, I keep learning from the PROFESSOR himself. Incredible teacher, I can only hope to fish with him someday.
Brian: Madison WI.
All I can say to Bob is THANKS. Man you should see one of his seminars. We would put 10 to 20 people together just to go see him preform at the Madision Fishing Expo, in a league of his own. Go see him.
