Our guests at Cedar Island Lodge have experienced exceptional size and numbers. Several 50″ plus musky have been caught since the musky opener in June. Ryan Harma caught two 50″ fish before noon the same day! Bucktails are prominent on Pipestone Lake guaranteeing a better hook up ratio during the summer season. On hot days, you want to be burning the bucktails at high speeds and on colder days you want to retrieve at a slower pace. At this time of year you want to concentrate on deep shorelines, reefs and focus on structure near the deeper water. Water temperatures are around the mid 70° mark.
