Muskies use these areas as ambush spots. Other key weed areas are inside turns in the weededge, and points of the weedbed protruding into the deepest part of surrounding waters. Fish these areas first when you go to cast a main lake weedbed. A good lake map oftentimes labels such micro-spots. When fishing rocks, look for pieces of the structure that stand out as obviously different elements.
Large boulders offer cover, as well as small weed patches within the rocks.
Inside turns and protruding points are as good in rocky areas as they are in weeds, so be sure to offer multiple casts into these areas. Again, the best areas on a particular piece of structure will become obvious to you the more you look at it, both in your boat and from a lake map. I divide topwater muskie lures into two major divisions crawling lures and speed lures. Crawling lures are presented slowly and oftentimes to a location known to hold fish. These baits may have propellers, rotating or wobbling sections, or wings that cause the bait to wiggle.
