We tried for muskies, but none followed our lures in. The pike cooperated, though. Paddle tails worked great. The fish didn't get active until the solunar major started at 4:30 pm.

Reeds
Sudden drop in air temperature and relatively warm water temperature puts a fog on the surface of the water, indicating that a topwater bite is potentially on. Fish flat, shallow areas ideally with sand and reeds present. Fishing a steady retrieve prop bait at a relatively slow rate can move fish and yield bites, particularly early in the morning and late into the evening/night. Water temps tend to be around 60 degrees - with dropping air temperature - when this topwater window is open.
