MUSKIE FISHING
Tackle and Lure Suggestions
Adapt your rod & reel to the size of the lure you want to cast.
We recommend a heavy rod (length of your choice) with a 50-lb braided line for using 3 to 4-ounce lures.
Lighter lines might snap on backlash during a cast with heavy lures.
We recommend using a leader of 80-100lb made of fluoro, titanium, or steel.
Tips for Catching Muskie
Most are caught less than 30 feet deep and sometimes much shallower. Here are a few suggestions for making muskie fishing easier:
- Casting and trolling are both effective
- Muskies are often found near reefs
