I made it out to Lake Marburg this morning for a few hours and was fortunate enough to sight fish to some cruising musky. They were tiger musky (>30") and appeared to be "making rounds" in a cove on the northern portion of the lake in clear water. I saw one fish three separate times, then the last sighting was two fish, paired up cruising. I must admit that my heart was pumping so hard on the first sighting that I had a tough time casting :-D Things got better on subsequent sightings though. On all occasions, the fish had little to no interest in my offerings. Could have been a lot of different factors.
So I go to thinking, will "cruising" musky feed? I know some other species will not when they're in this mode. I do also know that we're dealing with musky here, so in all reality, they make the "rules" and eating is on their terms.
This looks like a good time to stalk the "toothies" from the shoreline!
