We’ve got 60 new photos from Mystery Lake to top off the spring fishing season. We were lucky enough to spend both bass and musky opener there and even though the weather didn’t cooperate we had several successful outings. Thanks to “The Famous Believer”, one of our top five spring musky lures, Mike was a musky catching machine!

There is no better time to catch muskie in numbers than the spring and early summer. Temperatures above and below the water surface are still relatively cool and muskie have finished their spawning. During this time they are likely still found grouped in shallow water or slowly moving toward deeper water. By concentrating efforts in fairly shallow water, we have been able to catch several great fish over the years. Here are a few of our favourite spring time muskie lures.
To be honest, I wasn’t a believer in this lure until this year. Sure I’d heard the stories of this world famous lure, but it had never caught me a fish. In fairness, I didn’t use it very often because I simply didn’t like the look of it. It’s body looks like a deranged combination of a platypus and a manatee. After boating four nice muskie with the Believer during the first two muskie trips of the year, it has earned a permanent spot in my muskie tackle box.
The Believer is ideal for trolling and casting and is available in several colours and sizes up to 13 inches.
