Hi Guys, I am fishing the spillway in mid March for the first time in 10 years. I would love to get a little general info on what to use for Walleyes and Muskies. I am all catch/release and have proper nets, and handling of eyes and skis for successful release. Baits colors and general area I could fish. I also would like to take my boat(Tuffy) in the river sometime in June, let me know depths and how far I can go without any danger, june techiques and fish that might be active then. Thanks for replys. Basscaster1@sbcglobal.net

for muskies, try the hollow bodied swimbaits on a three quarter ounce jig. Swim the bait about 5 or 6 inches off the bottom. As far as eyes go, you can use the same presentation. Dont downsize the jig, however, you may try the 6 inch swimbait for muskies and the 4.5 inch or 5 inch size for walleyes.
