Mepps Musky Killer Bucktail Pink/Pink Platinum

By A Mystery Man Writer

The Mepps Musky Killer Spinner is a great early-season musky lure. Musky season opens early on many shallow northern musky lakes, and fishing these cold waters with inline spinners can be the key to early season success. A deliberate presentation is needed; try slow-cranking a Mepps Musky Killer through shallow bays and large flats with emerging weeds. It's also an excellent warm-water spinner for burning over mature weedbeds; be sure to tick the tops to trigger more strikes.

Musky Bucktails

The Mepps Musky Killer Tandem Bucktail is a great lure for trophy pike and muskie, as it's equipped with a heavy-duty 5/0 treble and a 3/0 trailer treble hook plus a sizable bucktail skirt that creates more bulk, movement, and lift. This makes the Musky Killer Tandem an excellent spinner for fishing the mid-summer haunts of big muskies, such as weed lines bordering deep water. It's also an excellent warm-water spinner for skimming the weed tops with a rapid retrieve.
