just came down with muskie fever!!
I'm just getting into muskie fishing and plan on casting my arm off this season! I don't have a lot of lures and don't want to waist what money my wife will let me spend on something I don't need or the wrong colors. I will be casting mostly and fishing Ovid (I live 10 min away) but will fish Thornapple, Murry and so on. so what are some of the basics that I need thanks -Adam

I second what Steve said. You are just in time to meet almost everyone in the club, learn some things, and get a ton of great baits. Doesn't happen in one place too often!Steve S wrote:Adam, you need to come to the banquet this Saturday, talk to a bunch of the guy's and get some good baits. Welcome to the sickness!!
Re: just came down with muskie fever!!
Do you have any lures right now or are you starting from scratch? Here are just a couple lures that will cover any lake. Browns and oranges are great colors on every body of water so you can't go wrong there.jawtag wrote:so what are some of the basics that I need thanks -Adam

Welcome, Adam.
Please also take a look at our Info/Tips page for some other things you should have:

I live in Mason and fish Ovid all the time, and a friend of mine lives up near Ovid, too; I'm sure you'll see me out there.
Also, we will be having a Tournament at Lake Ovid on May 21. Come, if you can!
