Muskie
TechniqueBuzzbaitsSeasonFallStructureLaydownsThe muskie were absolutely crushing the buzz bait over the weekend on Dewey Lake! The muskie were laying in the shade lines and in the tops of laydowns. The first key was finding an area full of shad on the surface, the 2nd key was making long casts with the buzz bait and running those shade lines from the overhanging trees. Pick up some Booyah Buzz Baits and go try your luck at boating a big muskie, no fight like it!
