How do I finess a muskie?b

Musky Madness

Muskies will make you mad. They respond only to artificial baits when they feel like it and leave anglers sore from the day's casting and frustrated at the lack of a fish.

Similar to northern pike, muskies take eating very seriously though they are far more selective than pike. Try a 5- to 6-inch shad body or grub on a half-ounce jighead to entice unwilling biters. The plastic body is supple and lifelike, giving muskies what they're looking for.
