Location: University of Hartford | If i am correct, a "musky wheel" is a drying wheel? I just used a rotissery motor and then i still havent perfected the rest of it |

Location: Rhinelander | If my guess is right....the poster is looking for a "wheel" to spin looking for answers in certain scenarios.
Dark water, bright sun.....spin the wheel and it would suggest a bait, color and maybe retrieve to try.
Something similar to a "flow chart" if you will. Going from one variable to another suggesting different approaches and decisons "to be made" for the fisherman.

Location: Iowa Great Lakes | The wheel/chart I use is to fish when I can, have fun and if I boat a fish thats a bonus. Always learn from what you do, even a day when you see nothing teaches you something. Put 2 fisherman on any lake even one they both know well and odds are both will do something different. |

| I have one that I will sell, and for a small added fee, I will paint an X on the best side of your boat... |

I believe he's talking about a different kind of wheel...
What other kind of wheel would he want to MAKE? |

Location: Germantown, WI | I think you want the Color C Selector that some bass guys used (Roland Martin still uses it). I see it sells for $119 and advertises itself as a tool for bass, walleye and panfish. Don't think they have a large game fish version however. |

Whoever said you couldn't use what you learned in kindergarten was wrong.  |

| Bob M. has a flow chart shown like what you are requesting on his "Muskie Matrix" dvd but I don't think it ever shows the full thing. |

| Easy, just make a wheel that says *work a black bucktail fast* in every space. When you're unsure what to use next, just breakout your muskie whheeeel. |

| Alright - let's start the ideas thinking of it for a beginner who has never musky fished before. Know that for every one of these people may list, the opposite is just as likely to work:
- Clear water = natural colors and match the forage
- Stained water = bright colors and noisy
- Sunny = Silver
- Cloudy = Gold
- Any topwater color is good as long as it's black
- Cold water = slower retreive and smaller lures
- Warm water = faster retreive and bigger lures
- Moon rise and moon set + sunrise and sunset = prime times
- Local weather change always trumps moon phase
- Early spring = warmest water in the lake and emerging green weeds
- Structure with wave action crashing into it is always better than structure with calm water around it
- When all else fails, vary your retrieve and add jerks and pauses
- Figure Eight after EVERY cast
