Bass Tackle Musky

[everythingthatswims]

Today my friend and I spent 5 hours on the river here in Morgantown in kayaks. We had more opportunities at musky than bass over 12", which is typical. I caught a musky on a finesse jig (watched it eat the bait when I was swimming it in), my friend caught one on a spinnerbait, I lost one on a spinnerbait, and had one follow it to the kayak but I wasn't figure 8ing because well I was fishing a spinnerbait for bass. We did catch two smallmouth between 1&2lbs and several largemouth and spots around 8-11".

 

The river here is seriously infested with them, it's not even a surprise anymore to hook one. I caught my first musky in August last year, and today I landed my 20th!

If you get tired of catching those ski's come down here and I'd be glad to trade you a small mouth trip for a muskie trip! Twenty since last August is really impressive!

I've got family in Abingdon. I'm somewhat familiar with the fishing down there
