i live in idaho have never fished for muskies any info would be greatly aprciated. What lure or bait night or day depth ? or anything you might know that might help me. thanks in advance in case i dont write back ill probably be out fishing. ty Doug:)
 
I have good luck with bulldawgs, the black and white, or black and yellow seem to work good, also bucher tails work pretty well.

The thing about musky is they dont call them the fish of a thousand casts for nothing. Dont give up though the first time you hook up with one of those fish it is worth all the sore arms it took to get there.

Suckers work pretty good also, but whatever you use file the barb off the hook, and be careful how you hold them. They are big and can be fragile, if you file that barb off the hook they are easier to get off the hook, and in turn less stress on them cause you can get your pics taken and have them back in the water asap. Also make sure you have a good net, that is another thing that will help land them quicker and keep them from being too stressed out. Good luck.
