The lake is still open with surface temps from 47-52. Deer hunters just got off the lake as shotgun season ended this afternoon, I think. It was like a war out there just listening to the shots go off. Muskies have been eating larger crank baits the last couple days even with the cold front that went through over the weekend. Baitfish are balled up over deep water and steep breaks. I attached a pic of a 44 from Saturday. I lost a good one today trolling the new Crisco from Llungen Lures. This bait is sure to put some big fish in the boat for '09. I also had one fish hit a Killer eel today casting and talked to one guy yesterday who caught one casting a triple D. Hopefully we don't freeze up anytime soon!
