Muskie fishing has been great this week we boated 16 Sat and 8 today, nothing very big though 45 inch was are biggest. They are actually starting to school up and feeding on bait in the shallower water now. We have been fishing from 8 to 11 ft. It will only get better now as they fatten up for winter.
