Congratulations, Oliva. That's a great first muskie, bigger than my first. 😊 Ben: a suggestion. Try vertical jigging a lure near the sucker. Put the trolling motor on about 1 m.p.h. and troll your sucker along the breaklines while jigging a bondy bait, fuzzy duzzit bladebait, bulldawg, etc. Use the jigging lure to attract muskie to the sucker. This is stealing an idea from the walleye fishermen. They vertical jig while trolling a livebait rig, all the time. Works for them, should work for you too Last open water video of the year?? We could have all of November yet before ice.

I def want to try jigging more! Thanks for watching!!
@benstonefishing
It's worth a shot, and I don't think many other muskie fishermen do this. So the fish haven't seen it.
@benstonefishing
Ice fishermen dead stick a minnow in one hole while jigging a lure in a nearby second hole. Same concept but from a boat.
