Posts: 1
Hi guys. I live in England and fish almost exclusively with lures for pike. Over here, soft plastics are really popular - particularly bull dawgs, although in recent years soft plastic swimbaits have become very popular too.
I was wondering, what soft baits do you use over there for musky? Does anyone use things like Hogy's or other lures that you have to rig up yourself?
Cheers.
Chris.
p.s - if you're ever over here and want to do some fishing, let me know!

10" Fin-S minnow by Lunker City when rigged up with a big weighted or unweighted offset hook work great. I use their 7" all the time in the spring before Muskie opens and we are chasing Pike to fill our need for slime.
