Gear for this water

For the muskie and pike (northern pike on the season program here)

Large bucktails and gliders	big profile baits; finish every cast with a figure-eight
Steel or heavy fluoro leader	non-negotiable; pike and muskie cut everything else
Oversized landing net	a stocked muskie fishery deserves a proper release tool

Suggestions follow from what the state actually stocks here and what kind of water it is, nothing else. No sponsored placements.
