Becoming a Musky Hunter

Northern Pike & Muskie

Dick Sternberg is a former fisheries biologist who has written many books to help anglers understand fish behavior. In addition, he’s an avid fisherman who has developed many helpful techniques and tactics to catch fish consistently.

Like most fish species, the key to catching muskie and northern pike consistently is to understand their habits and master your own techniques. Unlike other species, however, these popular gamefish will require some unique tactics and equipment.
This book includes a wealth of information on pike and muskies, along with hundreds of spectacular color photos, that will help you catch them more consistently. Learn how these fish act, where to find them, what baits and lures work best, and how to land a trophy fish in special weather situations.

A unique portion of this book even breaks down different regions of the United States and Canada and shows you some hot-spots that may be close to home.

Read this book and you’ll be on the way to catching more and bigger fish than ever before.

This was a good hands-on look at the exciting hobby of muskie/pike fishing. The full color photos showing exactly what type of water or cover to target these fish in was superior to other books that have simple hand drawn black and white sketches.

The Freshwater Angler books have been a favorite since being a young adult. The books always possess a lot of nice pictures and good data. If this book is paired with In-Fishermen articles then a knowledge base increases dramatically.

This is a beautifully illustrated book about the fish, tackle and tactics for catching the fish. I would recommend this book for the person wanting to start hunting these monsters. I gives the beginner musky hunter good insight into the tackle needed, proven presentations, and behaviours of the fish. Although there are more detailed references available, I believe this is an excellent starting point for the person serious about (or seriously considering) fishing for musky.

This is a good comprehensive book on Muskie fishing tactics for beginners and intermediate anglers. It is a little outdated on the boating equipment sections but the lure information still holds true. I especially like the section on where to look for them in different types of lakes. I recommend this this book to everyone.

Angling for muskellunge is not for sissies or dummies. Knowing what tackle and tactics to use and knowing what the pros do during, and after, a muskellunge battle can make all the difference in the world. For under $20 this well organized book is a great buy and a good read for both the beginner and the old timer.
