Muskies From Shore

[Draven]

Do any of you do Muskie fishing from shore???? If so what do you use and any spots in the Manotick, Osgoode area

I like using Swim-Whizz from shore for lunge. They are great and don't get hung up as much as some of the other jerk baits. Try below Blacks Rapids by the outflow and also below the Long Island lock. Try above the locks in both of these locations also. I swear sometimes the muskie use the locks free of charge.

I've hooked into quite a few, (didn't land), and seen them many times in Arnprior right in town. The boat launch near the bridge and behind the hotel by the dam, (across from the boat launch).

They're not very pretty there, lots of scars, but they have hit my lures/bait many times when I've been fishing for other species.

Good Luck, Buzzer

A good shore location in your area is the launch a Kars. You can fish from the big dock and cast out to the old bridge supports. Try using a Bulldawg to give the something different to look at. Live bait works well ... just ask any of the kids that leave the pearch on too long
