    I admire your dedication. I only catch musky when fishing for something else. I love rivers, you have the right idea. I noticed in cold water they'll follow just about anything, if you're real slow. I saw the same fish a couple years in a row, it just wouldn't bite, but it would follow and stop at the pier, 3 feet away. Great spots, you'll be getting one really soon.

Everyone wants to be told where to go and what to use instead putting the time in and figuring out the river themselves.
