Heading up for a family vacation from the 22nd to the 29th. While It's a family trip, I do plan on fishing a bit for muskies. I have basically promised my 7 year old daughter that she'll get her first.

I plan on targeting 'skis early mornings and at dusk. Any tips regarding general areas and presentations?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Weighted 10" Suicks on the deep weed lines.

Ernies and Bulldawgs over the deepest basin areas.

Bucktails in the weeds for smaller fish.

Weeds ~ firetiger, deep ~ cisco or black/silver pattern.

Try Big Sandy breakline on Tomahawk in the evenings with silver(or white) blade and black hair bucktail.

Make sure you hit around the public pier off 51 btween 7&9 a.m. Every summer their is always some panfish guys off the pier yelling they have a muskie on. Also Kennedy bay btween 7&14 w/ bucktails. Also, when you take the channel to Tomahawk, their is a nice weedbed to your right once you get out of the channel. If you need a few walleye spots let me know.
