I am taking a couple big rods, not much of a muskie fishermen, not for lack of trying… stayed at muskie bay resort (Crow lake) one time and went out on low with a guide recommended by said resort..hoping to learn a little, the guide gave me a red and black spinner bait and that’s what we both threw all day. Was going to have a eye for shore lunch but couldn’t even catch a walleye! The last 15 min. I finally put on a big bass jig with big paddle tail on it I’d seen Doug Stange use and had a follow. (Yea I learned something all right)..Kind of burned me on the guide thing!! I now there not all like that!! I used to guide goose hunting, so I know it doesn’t always work out….
