hear fishy fishy Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I have never fished Muskegon lake for them. However I do have some experience fishing walleye through the ice. I would start with a few lures that dart and a few that flutter. Everyone has there own favorite bait but I like rapalas and Swedish pimples. Cleo's and small spoons also work. Lead head jigs and a minnow can work great as well for a really cheap start. Here is a list of some of my top baits.1. Blue and chrome rapala.2. Clown rapala3. Purple and yellow moonshine4. Pink and chrome Swedish pimple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
numberguy77 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Hey crazy,You might want to call ahead to a local bait shop as Muskegon Lake doesn't have good ice, at least in the usual walleye "hot spots".Check out this link to the weekly local fishing report and you'll see what I mean.http://www.mlive.com/news/muskegon/index.ssf/2013/02/fishing_report_muskegon-area_a.html#incart_river_defaultI've heard they are getting some perch at the west end of the lake by the sand docks, but you may have to stay all day to get 20-30 keepers. I guess the ice is better in that part of the lake.Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
