This video couldnt have come at a better time I target a river that I want to catch a topwater muskie in and it and have been trying to figure out what bait would be best and I'm going with the whopper plopper youd suggested thanks for the awesome content.
I would add a treble to the middle of the boilermaker, it helped me out a lot this past summer. Before doing so I lost a handful of muskies because the lure was T-boned.
I fish a small river that gets a normal amount of pressure. I like to use prop baits and they do decent. But do you think big fish can get fooled on them still or if everyone is throwing them will they wise up?
@taylormyers I'd say if you're concerned that prop baits might be overused on your particular river, maybe try using a small walk the dog style topwater instead. Good luck out there!
My tackle box is full. But I'm still buying baits. The addiction is real.
Kevin Wimmer You're darn right it is!
This for Nate cause is willing to try different stuff :) Mini and Baby Beaver are great river baits
Christopher LaCoste Just to show you that I pay attention to the comments, I bought a baby beaver and I plan on giving it a whirl!
Dude that tiger ski tho, super cool! Definitely unique
The Musky Channel Yeah! That was a really cool one!
All great choicest, see you in Milwaukee, great video Brian.
Mitchell Genz See you there bud!
That River Mondo was "Part Tiger Musky" IMO - Cheers" for your 2023' Opener! jd
J Dean She was a pretty one!
Great video as always dude! I need to fish more rivers. Wish iowa rivers had them!
Who says why don’t 🤫
@@TeamHatchetOutdoors I know there are some but it’s not like Wisco or Minnesota
That dropper for the hook is a good idea on that palegic swim bait.
That pelagic swim fish was a giant!!
Wide Open Water She was a good one for sure!
I was gonna try a spillway here in illinois, threw 2 boilermakers in my box. Glad to see I’m reasonable in my choices!
DrFrankensteam Definitely a good choice!

Good stuff, thanks!!
Dean Mentjes You bet!
Which whopper plopper is this, 110 or 130. Great videos!
@johnferrente1261 it's a 130. Perfect size for small river muskies!
I mean I can always use a few more baits haha.
Can't we all?
Rascaligan Just a few more 😉
