I just poached this post from another site regarding how far muskies will actually travel throughout the year. This is the most extreme examples I have ever heard about mainly due to the lack of studies being performed in the muskie world (when compared to other fish).


Here is the excerpt:


At one of our Muskies Inc. banquets recently, a Michigan DNR biologist was telling us about a tracking study he's doing on muskies in LSC. They tagged a male fish #007 (and so now they call him "James Bond") in the Spring, near the mouth of the Detroit R. at the S end of LSC.

That year, they tracked James Bond down into Lake Erie, and all the way east to Buffalo, and then back to the mouth of the Detroit R the next Spring. That's gotta be over 500 mi round-trip.
