Plastic crawfish from CT also worked great. Got muskie from Bill's dock :)
Are you serious? What time of year?
I threw everything from the dock while we were picking up some more ice for the wobbly pops. Didn't see anything. Not even a hammer handle.
It was end of September last year. I cruised around the dock at low speed, waiting for place to be freed to unload and launch the boat. My fishfinder showed something and I told to my son to throw the line. He took the first that was near him and it had brown crawfish already. Muskie grabbed it immediately.
That mystery fish could have been a big musky!
hey paddy ....glad to see you had a great time....bill is truly a great guy....and you are very welcome about the tips hope some of it worked.
Awesome story... I could picture myself fishing in those exact places you speak of.
That small creek on the left just out of Arnold's bay is a tiny inlet into the legendary Crappie Bay.
Years ago the water was much deeper and that bay was littered with those critters. I couldn't say where you would find them now but June is kinda late.
Some of the biggest and more populated fish in that Moon River basin is Channel Cats. I'd bet one of them broke the line. Unless you are rigged for it, or are blessed with massive amounts of luck, those big musky wouldn't be on your line more than a few seconds. Bite right through the Steel!

i agree but they do have huge cats in there too.
im thinking sturgeon or catfish
I will second the sturgeon theory being it was near the falls
