Muskies are bitting gliders and minnow baits on the cold water near brush and herrings or skipjacks. small inlines are working in the discharge water areas. The fish are averaging around 36 inches with sever over 40 yhis year already.

watch out for the big stipers in there some are over 50 pounds.

melton hill has cooled down because the power plant is off line temps have fallen to 46. it will be off line for 2 weeks so fishing will be slow.
