OPENING BELL MUSKIES » PRESENTATION » OPTIONS IN PLAY • The beginning of the muskie season is a special time of the year for Esox anglers. Shaking off the stupor from a long winter, we look forward (optimistically) to the pursuit of these perfectly obstinate creatures.

‘Scope Sniping SINGLE-POLE CRAPPIES • Single-pole fishing was practiced well before the recent introduction of active sonar. The angler dropped a jig down and around visible cover. The introduction of regular sonar made it easier to find brushpiles and other submerged cover. A long rod kept the jig moving vertically (and horizontally) allowing the angler to probe spots and then methodically pick up 10 to 15 feet of line and place the jig at the next target.
