There's a couple different techniques to target them. Night-time Trolling the upper river, Jigging Tubes in the river, Trolling the harbor in fall, Casting weeds in spring, etc.
I've found that this area allows you to use almost every technique; how effective it will be is usually determined by time of year and water temp.
For the river, if you aren't using tubes, you're missing out on the how 60% or more of the fish are caught.
Harbor is bigger fish in fall, but usually lower numbers. River is the reverse of that.
the Niagara Musky Association, or NMA is the local group who will dispense any and all information that you need. Look them up, pay the $20 to join and access their website. Lots of helpful guys, plus access to leaders, supplies, beckman nets, etc.
Really worth looking up. If you join and I see you post, I'd even take you out on the water one of these days.
