[Spiel]

I dunno what you & Spiel are talkin about Mike, I'm always smiling when I'm fishing.

 

 

 

Yep. that's the smile I've come to know over the years.

I've never seen you looking happier Lew.

Does smiling on the inside count?

[mike rousseau]

September or October

Last couple years and primarily last year I threw DC-10's just about all the time. Put three in the boat with them and 2 were PB for me. Dominate color of black skirt / silver blades. Probably see a lot of action this year as well, I tried trolling believers over the years and have yet to get a hit on one. I also troll with depth raiders. Patsy put a nice fish in the boat with a custom bait Joey made for her. I'm sure that will get some heavy use as well

[speedtroll]

i agree with all the above but you absolutely have to have a couple Double Cowgirls and a couple depth raiders.

all have their place

 

 

It's all in the way you smile at the fish Mike

[Moosebunk]

A go-to muskie bait is an oxymoron to me. lol.

 

Thanks for letting me know too guys, that I bought all the wrong the stuff.

 

Best two muskie came on Fudally's... a brown/red and yellow/red, long-lined about 75 feet back and trolled around 4.5 mph. If you're looking for average fish, that'll do it. lol.

[outllaw]

we run shallow cranks and handlebarz flashtails.. you can control depths trolling by adding in line weights. the woodies,and handlebarz i use a weight ahead of a 5ft leader trolling. the top colors are 9 dollar bass, special perch and a pearl wh/flashaboo.

[Rizzo]

sledge, big white spinnerbait, and a big storm crankbait - cheap bait but swims like a bugger goes over 8 mph no problem

[gordy28]

My best baits for muskie in order have been

Dick Pearson Grinder-white and chartreuse 1 ounce

Mepps Sassy Shad

8 inch Believer in Perch pattern

Just started throwing Cowgirls and topwaters last year but have yet to connect...
