| I would suggest getting a copy of Muskies on the Shield by Dick Pearson for "Where to Fish" questions. Has a lot of detailed information on what kinds of structure holds fish. (The book, not the DVD which is a nice DVD but does not go into the detail you will get out of the book).
And the Complete Guide to Musky Hunting by Saric/Heiting for lure selection, lure progression, and how to use them.
I am also pretty new at this having only chased muskies a couple seasons and I found both of these books very helpful. If I could only pick one it would be Pearson's book.
