Think conditions and matching lures to the proper techniques for the waters and structural elements you intend to fish. -Zachary The Suick thriller is the bait I use the most they work in all weather.it comes down to what lake im fishing.where do you live I fish alone most of the time im allways asking people to go with me | ||

Posts: 39 Location: NE Twin Cities Metro | The first baits I focused on are these. Topwater, topraider, can't go wrong on presentation and built tough. Crankbait, 7.5 inch grandma or slammer (forget which was first), can be straight cranked, twitched or trooper between 3 to 7 or so feet. Bucktail & spinnerbait, one of each, a tax dog spinner and hirschs ghost tail (fluted blade). Next, for deep and shallow, go with a regular sized bulldog, bigger ones can wait until you are more equipped (big fish still eat reg dogs). Lastly, and my favorite, a weighted 9 inch suick. Love the suick, just don't be discouraged if it runs funny, they require tuning. What I love about suicks is that you work it, make all the magic, and it runs shallow enough that you can see everything, which I think lowers the learning curve since you see the fish strike or react. With this options, you can cover most situations. | ||

Posts: 127 | I know you asked about lures, but it is very important to have quality release tools! A good set of bolt cutters, net, large pliers, and jaw openers for sure! You may already have these, and if so I apologize - just some friendly advice on something that goes overlooked at first. | ||

Posts: 1360 Location: Lake "y" cause lake"x" got over fished | Eaglescout2012 - 5/14/2013 9:17 AM Thank you for the tips, I will use them when I go Muskie fishing this summer. -Zachary -- Hey man, don't forget to stop back during the season to grab some more info, make a few friends and hopefully hit the water with some guys who have an open seat. The more time you spend here the more people you will meet in your area, and the more info you will get for your time on the water | ||
