Location: Holly, MI | Most on this board have way more experiance than me but I'd have a second rod ready to follow up cast back with a completly different lure like a creature. Or quickly switch to somthing simular but different size or color. Keep casting for sure. |

Location: Lafayette, IN | I don't know what your feelings are about live bait but, there is a lot of success in the musky world (if your state allows it!) decoying a following musky with a live sucker on a quick strike rig at boatside. Or, having a "Meat Rod" ready in the live well as a throw back bait. "Quick Strike" is the operative word. I also give a second to using a smaller soft plastic as a followup. Good luck!
