Hottest bait, best color, favorite this, favorite that,..not trying to be a jerk, but I don't get it. Everyday there are at least 3 or 4 posts on here about what's you favorite bucktail, favorite glide bait, etc..If you only spend a small amount of time reading about muskie fishing (magazines, internet, books) you can pretty much answer all of these questions through deductive reasoning. Maybe I'm wrong (there is a first time for everything), but I think we should focus more attention on the important favorites....I am now attempting to hijack this post with an important favorite.

(On your home body of water) Where is the best place to grab a bite to eat & a beverage.
MINE: Fox Chain O' Lakes - 1.) The Thirsty Turtle (Channel Lake) - Great Cajun Burger, onion rings
2.) (If your are more interested in eye candy and over priced drinks - Blarney's Island

or if you prefer... What is your favorite color of underwear.
Mine: Racing stripes

BY FAR - The Bitten Tackle WarLock - Caught almost every fish so far this year..

"Fish and Whistle"
Thirsty Turtle Food isnt all that, pretty weak
The cook there looks like the cook in Scary Movie 2..LMAO..

Sand Bar - Marie - (burgers) and Steitzs - Bluff - wayyy better food!!!! IMO

Hey, if you are not in an event that prohibits it, and you are not on water that has warmed up too much yet--don't count out the lowly sucker. Most guys save their sucker fishing for the fall trophy runs but I have six legals on suckers so far this spring and have no shame about having done so. Marty Forman

I used to love the fried walleye at Steitz's. Then the health department closed down their kitchen. That put a dent in my opinion.

Famous Freddie's is cheap and good, but you have to travel through some nasty traffic to get there if you are on the northern lakes.

The Jimmy in Indiana has been sweet! The bite has not been easy but it seems to be one of those baits that just makes them move despite the tough fishing

Do you jerk the Jimmy or use a more finesse approach?

NICE ONE!! He kinda does! Great, now every time I go there I'll be thinking of that creepy little hand touching my food.

I've had a really good pork chop sandwich at Steitz's and I've had a really bad one.

Haha Steve... I jerk my jimmy with a little finesse here and there but the big muskies definitely enjoy a more erratic approach.

Phantom softail got a 34 incher on it today, had a 45+ take a swipe on it at boatside. Raised 6 fish today all but one were on the phantom, the other on a hellhound.

The hottest bait so far, the one I left on my dashboard

"Jimmy" is to big to be jerked, it must be stroked
