I will be up next weekend for 3 days at the in-laws cabin off Stoney. I am yet to catch my first muskie and will be giving it a try. Should I be sticking to weeds yet or are the rocks going to be a better bet? Any preferred baits for you?

For the eyes, are leeches the ticket yet? I tend to troll a lot of cranks up there but want to do something different if I can.

i was just up on traders over the week and we joined the little city of boats by goose island. we trolled in about 8 to twelve feet of water with shad raps and hooked into a 22, 21, 20, 17, 16, 14, and 13 inch eyes. We also caught a lot of tiny perch on them. I saw a couple pontoons anchored up and fishing with slip bobbers that caught some. we tried trolling and jigs tipped a with leeches and crawlers with no luck.

Whenever I go up there I hear that Stoney is going good. But I have only caught a few there while the neighbors come over and tell me they limited out in an hour with a few thrown back as well. I must be missing something there.....

I went there on the 9th and was there today. I would say that fishing is good. We had 20 on the 9th in about 4 hours and
was out there from abot 9:30 to 4:30 and we caught 15. 4 were
really nice fish. I saw a few people cranking on the 9th that
were catching fish. Rigs and crawlers worked best for me.

no sense driving all over the lake trying to find them. was out thurs sat and sun never over a 2 mile boat ride. don't fish until your finder lights up. fastest action was thurs on the water 715 am off by 10:30Am with over 20 boated for two guys. haven't fished walleyes out there in years. fish the windy side of the structure. good luck

Thanks for the input guys. I will be out this weekend in a green and tan lund explorer. Sounds like I will be on Stoney and the rocks. Maybe we will see ya there.
