CAC Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I hope to go for browns this year too. I look forward to learning more about fishing browns out of Muskegon too. I hope you get some helpful response to your post Flyboy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sno09board Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Hey guys. I'm by no means well versed in brown fishing but I've done it a bit (mostly to combat the cabin fever from winter I'm experiencing right now.) Last spring we caught 4 browns, all about 4 lbs. on an evening trip March 23 right in front of Mona Lake. We fished 6 planer boards with clean long lines (no leadcore or anything) behind the boards 75-150'. Effective lures for Browns in Muskegon for me have been jointed Rapalas (J9s) in blue/silver, orange/gold/white, clown, & brown trout. We try to target our boards over the second and third sandbar troughs. In other words, the boat is in about 5 feet of water but the boards are off to the sides in deeper water. Again, I don't have a ton of experience but this is what worked for me. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sno09board Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 As soon as there's an open launch and a few less big white chunks floating around out there, I'm game. I need some 50 degree weather like now, I'm starting to lose it a bit. You can only look at the same 50 pictures from last season so many times, you know?
