| I wade fish extensively, I use a 2 piece Extra Heavy action rod that is 7'2" with a Calcutta 400 TE. I wear breathable waders with cheap tennis shoes. For lures I only carry a few that will fit in my wader's pouch. A zoom brushhog with an owner sledhead, a rumbler topwater, a small bucktail like a slippery sam jr, and a minnow twitch bait, should cover most situations. Extra brushhog bodies are also required as they only last a fish or 2. I avoid jerkbaits as I've had more than a few muskies swim between my legs during a fight and I have no desire to get hooked in the crotch area. I had a friend get hooked in the calf, wading wet on a 2 hook crankbait, so make sure you carry hook cutters. |
