Musky in the Conodoguinet

Yea it's gonna have to warm up considerably before I get after them. The creek is 100% ice from willow mill all the way up past 81.

I'm kind of surprised willow mill got mentioned. The few times I've fished there it was a series of riffles with less depth.

Only musky I ever hooked (not landed) was below the boat launch at Willow Mill. We did a float trip a couple of summers ago and the hot spot seemed to be at the water plant before Sample Bridge Rd. Ran into quite a few guys targeting them down there.

I know nothing of the Connie, but I've seen many muskies in very shallow water. Depth doesn't seem to be that important for river muskies, at least not all of the time.

I agree. However, access to deeper water adjacent to shallow water is important.
