Two pro hockey veterans trade the rink for rods on Lake Nipissing, and the friendly chirps start flying fast. But the real surprise? What happens when the lines go tight and the oil gets hot.

Guide Sean Degagne and Chef Antonio “Smash” Muleka team up with Darren Turcotte and Scott “Razor” Ray for an all-out numbers battle on stained-water shoals, dialing quarter-ounce jigs, trailer hooks, and classic worm rigs into a perch and walleye frenzy. A rogue sheepshead crashes the party, the scoreline runs away, and day two turns into pike strikes at the boat with first-time baitcasters. There’s even a moment in the chaos that proves why nets matter.

Back on shore, Antonio redeems the chirps with golden beer-battered perch tacos, then throws down a no-rules taco faceoff between Turk and Razor. Unexpected condiments, bold slaws, and one ingredient that could sideline a judge raise the stakes. Who plates it best when presentation meets crunch?

Watch to catch the tactics, the banter, and the dish that edges the win. Hit play and join Celebrity Fish N Fire on Northern Ontario’s iconic waters.
