Location: Chisholm, MN		Interesting. A lot of variables at play but I have always thought that each muskie has a different personality. Some that are really into just following, some bite a lot and some probably don’t bite much. But I bet they can all be tricked at some point.

Location: PA Angler		Nice little article. Even when you get the lure in front of their face and chase it doesn’t mean they will bite.
