A cooler than normal early-summer period can have muskie anglers scratching their heads and searching in all directions for hot bite but the answer to finding a "tight line" might surprise you! When water temperatures are cold for muskies (60's) I have found that a larger percentage of adult muskies take up residence in thick, slop, weed cover. So now we have the location figured out but.....what lure to throw in these snag-ridden places? A great lure to begin traversing slop cover would be a safety pin spinnerbait like JBO's Slopmaster.
I lean heavily on these lures as a tool to get into super-thick cover and present a lure to a hungry musky that otherwise will not get casted at. There are of course some tricks to correctly fishing spinnerbaits in thick slop weed cover - and that is precisely what this quick tips video is all about. I hope you learn something here and that you enjoy this video. Thank you for watching!
