ice fishing for musky?
I am going ice fishing for muskie an northerns soon and i need to know what test line i need and what lures work best and how far on the lake do i have to be? Thank you.
I know that here in Wi. Musky season is closed thru the winter. I would use the same set-up for them that works for Northern Pike. My rigs consist of a tip-up with 20lb braided ice fishing line. I attach a large swivel snap to this line. Then I take about an 8 ft piece of 20lb monofiliment line with a loop to attach to the snap on the main line, thread on a 1/2 oz egg sinker, then tie a 20lb wire leader to the terminal end. I put a size 8 treble hook on the snap at the end of the wire leader, then hook a live large golden shiner just under the dorsal fin with one of the three hooks on the treble. I usually try to fish just off the edges of weed beds or other cover. Drop the bait in until the weight is on the bottom, then feed out about four feet more line. This keeps the minnow within a few ft of the bottom but allows it to swim fairly freely. I've pulled northern's as big as 34 inches through the ice using this rig. Good luck out there and STAY WARM!!!
