Saturday’s musky hunt started out on the slow side with a few accidental bass and no musky sightings until late-morning when a 40” male decided to crush a Legend Outcast and break the lip on the bait. A few hours later, a 42” female hammered a swimbait in the bright sun………she had some spawning scars on her but still had some acrobatics for us. The only 2 muskies we saw hit the bottom of the bag and both of those muskies were the first muskies caught by either angler.����

Sunday started out the same as Saturday with several bass (only 2 were mature) spread across the entire day. We did not see any Esox all day long but 1 of the bass was a 22”/4.5 pound stud that thought our musky baits looked pretty good.:)


Water levels are up a little and there is a bit of color coming in from the tributaries as you get south of Warren. Water temps are running in the 56-60 degree range depending on location.


I am not planning to be anywhere near the river this weekend.


Good luck and stay tuned!
