Newton

I went to Newton a couple of days ago. The muskies were out sunning on the beach. One even relaxing at the end of the ramp. Nothing that I tried would even get a look, unless I got it too close. Then they would just casually move off.

Thanks for getting back to me. I really appreciate it. I'm going to have to try it then. Need to break my personal best, and since a few lived, there may be a chance.

I recently purchased a use book about crank baits. The title is "Joe Bucher's Crankbait Secrets: The First Complete Guide to Fishing with Crankbaits"

Anyhow Joe tells a story about him and his dad fishing for muskies. They fished about 30 minutes before dark and a couple hours after it got dark. That is when the best bite is for those monsters.

We used to fish for Northerns in Alaska. The best time was right as it was starting to get dark and then the bite came on!

Try fishing with the biggest top water crank bait you got right as it is getting dark. I think they fill up at night and then cruse around being lazy during the daytime.

heavily pressured waters in wisconsin that i used to fish often only produced right at last light or after dark - big dark top waters are a good bait choice

gets aggravating seeing them sunning like that with a case of lockjaw!! i guess if they were easy to catch everyone would fish for them
