If you're having a hard time catching musky, whether you're fishing from the shoreline or boat, try waiting till dusk. I've caught majority of my musky in the evening versus morning, they just seem to turn on better towards night fall. They always seem to go on the feed right at dusk.
I caught this big musky on a Chaos Posseidon Clown colored swimbait. The bright yellow and orange fluorescent colors really seem to pop in the water when it's starting to get dark out.
