Location: Columbus, Georgia		I know that there are plenty of Muskies in the Susquehanna river.

However; I need to know if the river at Wilkes-Barre and Scranton (general area) can be fished in a deep-V (Ranger 619). I know there are some issues with this river being shallow in many places ...

Many thanks.

The susquehanna in general is a shallow waterway, in the Wlkes Barre area I have fished with clients and it can be tricky especially in a v bottom and a prop. most guys run jets and aluminum flat bottom boats, or kayaks even to navigate as some areas are less than a foot depending on water levels if you have not fished these areas its best to hire a guide or run with someone who has fished that area so no damage is done to your vessel.
