🙄 allright, high everyone, i am new to muskie fishing, and was introduced by my uncle who fishes in Indiana and is a member in his state. Last year we took a trip to cave run lake, KY in early september, and had a few follows, but no hook ups in 3 1/2 days of fishing, I come home, and go by myself to bankson lk. near my home, and land my first , and only muskie so far, a 32 incher. i went to webster in. and fished earlier this year and saw my uncle get one on a top raider , about 38. ANYHOW, my question involves MICHIGAN dnr info, and bankson lake. does anybody know if mdnr post any information on muskie per acre, or last stock efforts and on what lakes.? when was the last bankson stock? does anyone fish bankson regularly, and does it get a lot of pressure in the summer like now? im thinking of going tomorrow am , maybe this evening, im going to gander mountain, hopefully to get a kickin minnow, is anyone from the kalamazoo county area like i am , and fish somewhere besides bankson? well i hope you all hook and release a 50 incher today, and please repost, any info at all , ill take it.
Bankson has good numbers but there are issues with locals and out of staters that keep them and eat them. Most are not legal fish. It gets high to medium pressure. We still fish it once a year and generally do ok. We throw Talonz Little claws with good results and bucktails. Troll Hoginaters and slashers in white(superman) or perch/bass patterns. Bull dawgs over open water as a lot of the Bankson fish hold deep. I know of a few guys who do real well fishing it at night. You can see the Slashers and Little Claws at <url url="[Permission to view this media is denied]
