Michigan Muskie Alliance

JP, I have been using the Cabelas Whuppin Stick heavy rods that are 8' long. They work great matched with Okuma 30 line counter reels. Been using this combo for about 8 years and not a problem. The rods go for aobut $29 bucks I think....Scott

I found 4 new Talonz jointed lures in my bin, I have no room with the other 12 or so I already have. I think the colors are perch, olive frog, carp, and walleye. I need to part with these because hunting season is coming. I have pics available. $60 tyd includes shipping...pm me or shoot me an email....

Lake Mighigan is in big trouble and all the adjoining waters if this isn't stopped now. Too much red tape to get it done in a timely matter and the clock is ticking....my 2 cents worth..

I was wondering for those that troll with planer boards, which type do you like.?? For the inlines I have both Off Shore and Church walleye boards. I also have a mast and folding boards. I usually just fish Murray and like the idea of getting a better spread. I think the mast is a bit overkill for M...

I use my 10 wt Sage and a 10 wt Scientific Anglers Mastery 10 wt Musky line. Casts very well and I like the red color of the line. My favorite fly is the Dahlberg Diver in white with a red tail. I have tied a few of my own, but they are not as good as professionally tied ones. I have found some good...

Been away for a while and this is kinda late, but I have been using tyger wire for my limited fly fishing forays. Seems to work good, just no fish to verify it for me. I have used tyger wire for conventional muskie fishing and it has worked well..Scott

I am ready to try flyfishing for muskie. Just a quick question about leaders. I was going to run a straight section of Fluorocarbon, anyone use anything else? Thanks, Scott

I have used the tyger wire with a lot of success, tying instructions are on the package. Either use a split ring or a Berkley snap. Use a good ball bearing swivel on the other end. I have used regular seven strand with sleeves and crimping it with either just a loop for a split ring or snap. I reall...

Just curious what everyone is using for a basic jerkbait leader or bucktail leader? I pretty much use Terminator leaders or ones I make myself.

Murray is open all the way around. Launch is maintained by DNR at no charge. Ramp on the west arm isn't in as of Tuesday.

9" Granny hands down in my experience............

Mike, try Hook and Hackle. I think the website is hookhack.com. Bob is an awesome guy to deal with and there are always discounts. Another is Kaufmanns Streamborn, www.kman.com...If you need some other stuff, just let me know, I have a basement full of fly tying suff. Scott

I put Bert tracks on my Crestliner this spring and love them. I broke 3 rod holders last year and luckily didnt lose any rods. They are simple to install and look good too. They come in all different lengths. I was able to set up 2 down east rod holders on the adapters and they work great, they also...

I am looking at upgrading my electronics. I was thinking of a sonar/gps combo. Anybody have a recommendation.????

He makes for a pretty good co-pilot and a heck of a deck gunner....
