Muskie Fishing -> General Discussion -> I'm Stumped guys/gals.....

Subject: I'm Stumped guys/gals.....


Been a horrible month for me so far. Two weekends in a row I have blanked out. Last week I felt like I just ran out of time. Had seen a few fish (and a couple nice ones at that) but no takers. Found some active fish using weighted suik, but no biters.

This weekend, not many fish, bluebird skies, lots of wind (again) and falling temps.

Been fishing Walker area, hoping for a reed bite, but I think that never happened.

Anyone got any type of pattern going for clear water and falling temps?

Late last month I was fishing clear water with good wind and has made for a good daytime bite. Erratic baits and topwater have produced in deeper weeds. Hope this helps.

VMS,
Don't worry same for me. I went from June to August with 9 fish and 14 in the boat, to one in the boat for September so far. Hopefully my luck will change tomorrow.

We have Tigers only in our lake, but they act like Naturals this time of year. My lake is very low due to drought and very clear like your lake. Daytime temps are reaching the 80s and the water temps are in the mid-70s early in the day. We have had very good luck looking for the bait schools and fishing around them. Right now the fish are ranging from 5-15 feet of water. 6" minnow baits seem to do the trick. We do not have massive schools of baitfish, therefore we look for dimples in the water. Find the food - you find the Muskies. If you have large baitschools you can also find them on a good depthfinder.
