Cast big bucktail spinners and topwater baits over shallow grassbeds in June. As summer comes on, switch to oversize crankbaits such as the 10-inch Jake and 9-inch Grandma in shad patterns in the middle of the lake, where muskies often feed on big gizzard shad. If you can find schools of these baitfish on your depthfinder before you start casting, you'll improve your odds dramatically. Look for open water and bait schools. The muskies are usually down about 25 to 45 feet. Where to Fish: The main lake basin is the place to go.
