    Large red devils
    Copper or silver with red eyes were a hot lures for over 50 years.
    Not sure what the new go to lure is but the beer, bait shop and gas station at the end of bridge on Lakewood side should know.

    I wondered what you guys were talking about as we dont have muskie in Oz but, having just looked them up they are simply a british pike - used to raid fish ponds for gold fish .............best flaming lure ever for "muskies" - mind you small goldfish were cheap then particularly when taken from the local park .............oooops how did that get in the bucket

    I have had good luck with Rapala Super Shad Raps(perch) when casting or trolling less that 12 foot down. For deeper trolling I like Bagley Bango 8" in Fire tiger.

    Over the weeds a Suick in black and white.

    Havent spent much time on that lake but the times i have been successful. Bulldawgs in walleye and black casting and smaller trolling crankbaits in natural colors were my producers. Wileys, tuff shads and legend perchbaits
