Wisconsin River muskie colors?

Recommended Posts

Fished the Wisconsin River for 30 years from the Mississippi to as far north as Wisconsin Rapids. Not a muskie fisherman I fish for smallies and walleye. This river is full of shad and all the breeds of suckers. The minnows in this river range in some pretty wild colors and I do have a friend that fishes musky and says he does well on white and the sexy shad color pattern. Here is a website you can view all of the baitfish in Wisconsin. I download alot from here for my bait stencils. List of Wisconsin fishes

Just curious what color you decided to go with?

I'm going to go with a couple of natural patterns: a carp and ottawa sucker (came from woodieb8:yay:).

However, I also have a special place in my heart for bright colors so I'll probably do a firetiger or orange tiger as well.

Pearl copper and yellow sounds good. I've done several bass baits in those colors and the bass obsolutely hammer them!

Thanks again for all of the help guys,:yay:
