My favorite time of the year is when the water temps get into the 40s, generally late October or early November. There are giant muskies to be had and they are getting plump!!!! BUT – I have some secret spots to still be successful most days. This can be a more inconsistent time until the water temp on Lk. With the water temp dropping so does the muskies metabolism (meaning they aren’t needing to feed as often). Sometime around late September and early October the water temps drop and the bait and muskies scatter vacating that summer home range. This is the best period for action and a good chance at long fish.

During this time, they will set up a summer home range and will cruise and feed out in largely the main basin of the lake. Clair’s surface temps will be by the third week of June until approximately late September. They are a warm water fish ( unlike northern pike, walleyes, perch, trout, salmon, etc.) and prefer temps in the 70’s. As the water warms up so does their metabolism. Well!!!!! Anytime you can get here of course!!! You can't catch muskies sitting on the couch!!!! What’s going to happen is: the Muskies will come off the spawn in May.
