Musky are starting to move near the shorelines at Eagle Lake Island Lodge, ON.
Posted on September 22nd, 2009Well, the cold-front arrived this morning and we woke up to overcast skies, wind and very threatening rain clouds. We figured that with the low-light, the Musky and larger Pike would move closer to the shoreline structure and weeds and we were right.

Within 20-minutes of fishing our first “weed-saddle”, I hooked into a nice 3-foot Northern Pike that nailed a fluorescent orange Bucktail Spinner with a matching orange/yellow bucktail.

A few minutes later, I hooked a small musky. We had another 45-48″ Musky follow our bucktail to the boat and make 3-circles under out “figure-8” pattern, but it did not commit to hitting.
