Musky America Magazine July 2024 Edition

Big River – Little River John Myhre © 2011 There are many good-sized rivers like the Chippewa or Flambeau rivers in Wisconsin, or the Upper Mississippi in Minnesota that are known for producing Muskies. But there are also many smaller rivers that contain Muskies in these states and others. These smaller streams and rivers are often overlooked. Many larger rivers have good access and are navigable by boat, but many of the smaller rivers run through remote areas and are sometimes navigable only by small boat or canoe. Sometimes small rivers contain beaver dams or old logging dams that tend to restrict fish in certain river sections and also make the river harder to navigate. This means less fishing pressure.
