Muskie Fishing in Missouri: Pomme de Terre Lake was selected as a site for muskie stockings because of its size, clear water and excellent habitat (aquatic vegetation and flooded timber). It also has an abundant population of large prey fish for muskie to feed on.
Muskellunge, or muskie, is a member of the tiger muskie. Northern pike and tiger muskie introduction have been discontinued. The pure-strain muskie can be identified by its dark black vertical bars and elongated spots on a green to yellow-green background.
Muskies are aggressive, and will often strike lures so hard that it is thrown out of the water. "This aggressive behavior can unnerve even the most experienced folks fishing for muskie." (Missouri Department of Conservation.)
