I was going to take a stab at it and say July and August. I wouldn't have been to far off base All you musky men out there, what lake do you rate #1 in our state. I've often heard it is Leesville, but reports out of Alum are getting better and better, are they not? THE CATKING !!!

Great info!

I have been wanting to give muskie hunting a shot this year. That is very interesting info. I am going to get me one this summer.

You can add this to the data. Whatever month I catch my next muskie in will be the month where 100% of my catches came from.

 

[esoxhunter]

statistically, Leesville is #1 and Clear Fork is #2
these lakes give up more lunge than any others in the state. Mainly good numbers in these lakes with a decent population of big'uns.
For trophy class musky, Piedmont and Salt Fork might be better.

Trophy Class, Don't forget about Berlin. That lake is very underlooked fo its muskie fishing.
