how to buy a musky (muskie) rod?
i use top water cranks spinners jerks just about all kind of lures how do you know what size rod you should get and stuff like that
Im not a big musky guy but do a lot of fishing and can give you some advice.
The musky are of course a big hard fighting fish so you want a decently big and durable setup. I dont know if you like spincast or baitcast reels but a baitcaster will probably be the smarter bet. You’ll need a rod/reel that will at LEAST hold 20 pound line. I prefer the baitcasters over the spincast reels for larger fish because they’ll generally handle heavy pound line better than the spincasts.
As for your rod you’ll want medium/heavy action or a heavy action. It’ll give you better and stronger hook sets and will be able to handle these big fish. Ive had catfish snap a medium action rod like nothing and the muskies are much more eratic in the water than a catfish so if it were me id get a heavy action. A 6′5-7′0 rod will be a good length.
