Hey Pred I am seriously thinking of doing the muskie hunt at Pinview myself. I kind of figured that I would use a light steel leader and fish with my current gear. Meaning 6# line on my spinning reel, and change to a shorter 6' med. action rod.
With that said and having paid attention to the post on muskies here (well except when I was sleeping). I was wondering if you had any pointers for me? Like any which kind of lure(s) to use. I saved some of the perch from our last trip So I have something to put on the hook as an enticer. Any other bait I might want to consider? And I have a couple of really old lures that were my dads, he caught everything on them! Stripers, Salmon, CA Halibut all come to mind. They are in great shape and it seems a waste to not use them. I have kept them cause I like looking at them and remembering our fishing trips when I was little. Should I be using single (which I prefer) hooks or trebblie hooks? Colors ......? Thanks in advance Pred
