Ok here’s the deal. 1. You should definitely use a net when bank fishing to minimize dragging the fish around on rocks or the bank... if you are kayak fishing and a net is too cumbersome, the lip grippers are fine. 2. Do NOT hold the fish vertically! Only horizontal or diagonal for photos and ALWAYS support the belly. 3. This spillway is crowded enough before and after work hours... So you are only adding to that problem by showing how easy it is to catch musky here. 4. These smaller musky are more hardy than ppl realize. They are all stocked fish and they do not naturally reproduce here anyways. So it is ok for beginners to learn the ropes of musky fishing here. All in all good video man. I can be a stickler at times, but at the end of the day it’s just fishing. 👍🏼

They literally spawn there and have bred there from falling out of the lake into the spillway…. It’s literally a Muskie breeding ground.

I would almost guarantee they are naturally reproducing especially downstream in this system both the main channel and the smaller tributaries.

@@fynthesisanglingevolved5071 I can see how you would think that, as I used to think the same. But I've learned that once you get so far South, Muskie will not reproduce on their own. Studies by DNR have proven this. This is also why Muskie are not native to Central or Southern Illinois. They are literally all stocked fish, as I said before. The reason so many are located in the spillway is due to escapement below the dam. Since 2010 or before, DNR has Stocked between 5,000 and 15,000 adult Musky in lake Shelbyville each year. Muskellunge are traditionally a river fish so naturally they escape thru the dam and when they try to migrate back north they get stuck there. It is also a great food source for them as fish are constantly falling thru the dam. You have to just trust me on this stuff lol. I have a lot more knowledge on the subject than your average joe.

@@krisripke3319 My guy, trust me, according to DNR, Muskellunge do not spawn naturally in central or southern Illinois. The reason there are so many below the spillway is Muskie are traditionally a river fish and many of the stocked fish travel towards the dam and end up falling thru to the spillway below. When you realize DNR stocks an average of 10,000 adult muskie in the lake a year, you can see how so many will get down there in the spillway. They don't want to travel south where the water temps are much warmer so they will stay close to the spillway where it's cooler water and a valuable food source as well. It is not a breeding ground. For anybody reading these comments, you can also look this stuff up for yourselves.

Please do not fish for muskie without a net. Guaranteed more than half of those fish are dead. Please do some research

Oh please, shut up. You're so concerned about one of the toughest freshwater fish in the country. There's plenty of Muskie for you to catch. You just assume a fish is dead because he doesn't have a net. I don't have a net and guess what. All the fish are fine.
