New member here but have been reading the threads for years. My oldest son is now just about fishing age and i'm hoping to get out much more this summer. That being said, i have never caught a muskie and its right up there on my list. I have heard lots of people say under the bridge in Jonstown, or the mouth of the kemtville creek, or just east of Brown's Bay but i would love some more detailed help. If anyone has any tips, tricks, and especially locations, please help a guy out .

That is a very good stretch but the boat traffic can get heavy! Troll weedlines or cast big suwicks or pdeez bucktails! If by shore I used to have lots of luck under the becketts bridge when I was shore bound!
Beauty responses folks thanks! I know its still early but ive got the itch haha. I just bought a new baitcaster (now i have 2 months to practice casting) and am going to get a one piece 7 1/2 medium to heavy action rod. I have the buck tails and spinners so ill have to get out between the bridges. So just along the edges? Any tips on time of day or time of year? Am i wasting my time going out opening weekend?
Get out on opener, I've actually had better numbers in the first few weeks of course once bass opens i don't really target them. but they seem to like eating my jigs
I actually prefer to throw smaller baits and catch some pike at the same time. Can't go wrong with weed lines
Make sure to be prepared to land quickly, snap your pic and release quickly, Hook cutters, good long pliers, jaw spreaders and big net or cradle
