Location: Eastern Ontario | In thirty years I've never seen the water this high during muskie season. Not sure I can even get my boat out to where the launch drops off but if I can where would you start looking for fish. My thinking is they may be up on peoples lawns real close to shore. Would like to hear from anyone who has been successful under these conditions. I was out 2 days ago when the water was very high but still 18 inches lower than today or 2 feet below what it is probably going to be tomorrow I only contacted a half dozen pike on what would normally be a 10 foot weedline ( weeds are behind schedual ).

White Bear lake has been losing water for years.
Might be stable now but everyone that lives on the lake gained couple hundred feet of beach.

Like he said. When water us up muskies move closer to shore. Especially flooded trees,grass n reeds. |
