    Default NO idea what to do next.

    I live on upper gresham lake in Boulder Junction.To say the muskies have been slow is an understatement. Been fishing since opening day couple hours a day and have caught zero. Local guides say no blade action only twitch or side to side gliders. Tried that forever got sick of it and started throwing buctails again because the water raised 10degrees to 73 F in the last week . Been seeing fish have had like 10 follows and 1 nipper @ boatside on a deep extended figure 8 . Need advise what to do .I have tried going to small bucktails spinner bait style slow jerkbaits mostly jerking a rapala super shad no bites ! Anyway wanted to vent and my family is sick of hearing it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated TY Musky Malingerer

    A friend of mine has had decent action on Mantas. Caught a 40 and a 36 with it, also had a couple of others on. Only a 29 so far on anything with a blade. Maybe give a Manta a try (bumble bee color in stained water).

    TYvm mark went to kurts today and bought one in the lac seul perch color; only place in town that has em! Northern Highland Sports in BOulder Junction is going to see about getting them too. Heard lots of people who thought river run tackle wasnt in buiseness anymore and wasnt making mantas . Is this true? I just got one but i really like it threw it 20 times today before i picked up my wife from work lol .

    My understanding of the situation is that they were out of business for a while, but the brand was purchased by someone from Gander Mountain and they are starting production back again. I could be wrong, as I heard this second hand. Has anybody else heard anything?
