sturgeon lake muskie?

[peter23]

just wondering how the population of muskie is in sturgeon lake. going up there tomorrow to taget them but havent really fished the lake. what depths would they be at right now and any certain lures to be using?

Lots of Muskie in Sturgeon. Try trolling 10" Jakes and Believers in open water near structure.

shallow invaders trolled in 10 to 25 feet of water have been my top producing lure. Jakes, grandma and believer lures have also worked extremely well. Cheers Jeff

There are plenty of muskie in Sturgeon lake, I catch the stupid things all the time when I am fishing walleye. If you are familiar with the lake, try the Goose Bay area between Ball Point and the Moorings marina and South. Look for 12-14' FOW then work South ( shallower)from there. The muskie are hanging in around the weed edges picking off the pan fish. There isn't too many boats out this time of the year so you could even fish the chanel from the lake going up toward Lindsay. Winds are calm it isn't cold or raining, enjoy your day!
