BASIC INFORMATION:
MUSKIE:
Just as we predicted! MUSKIES Are Hitting! They began to really move yesterday evening all over the place. Although Hurricane Ivan is sitting on us today with 30 to 40 mile an hour wind gusts and steady rains.........we are hitting the water this afternoon! We've been raising some huge fish and catching several 40+ Inchers in shallow water.
BASS: Plastic worms and lizards in 5 to 15' feet; Flukes & Carolina-Rigs have been producing well. Night time has been the best bite. (Still no change)
CRAPPIE: Holding to submerged cover @ 10' to 12' feet.....Live Minnows have been the biggest producers escpecially at night.
TECHNIQUE & SUGGESTED LURES:
Slippery Sams, Bull Dawgs & 1 oz.Spinnerbaits have been the ticket! You want to concentrate fishing in 10' feet of water to 1' foot of water. Fish real tight to cover and get back into the bushes and tree tops.
Crank you Spinner baits a little slower than you normally would right now and try pitching out a topwater lure in the mornings and late eveings. I suggest Top Raiders and buzzbaits. While throwing Top Water lures be sure to have a very slow retrieve. We've also caught a few of our Muskies on the Super Stalker & Super Believer crankbaits with rubber tails; an absolute Must Have Lure for any Musky Fisherman.
Special Note: As the lake level rises, just keep moving on back into the brush.
Trolling over the weeds using medium running crank baits while short-lining (10' to 12' of line out), and the 10" Believers by Drifter Tackle, Little Ernies Super Stalkers, & Super Beiliverstrolled at the end of your prop wash have all been producing well. **Ziplo Flats have given up several fish lateley*
