 The Chippewa Flowage Musky Study Re-post from 09/24/2014
As most of us know the Chippewa Flowage Musky strain is one of the fastest growing. Yes it is one of the most fished body's of water in the Musky world. But! After reading the Chippewa Flowage Musky Study again this spring, the Musky size to depth relationship got me thinking. Do Musky over 45" spend most of their time in that 13 to 20 foot range? Is that why many crank baits are made to run in the 8 to 16 foot range? And yes! If you read the whole article, Musky do feed in deeper water on lakes like the Chippewa flowage. Do Musky return to the area they where once caught and released in? Hit the link above to read the CFMS report.
