I some how acquired a Muskie on the fly fetish, that I hope I can satisfy this spring, I have never even been Muskie fishing before lol Well these are tied with craft fur and various flash its a tandem 3/0-2/0 combo (bigger first) articulated with several strands of 50# power-pro and finished of with a silicone sealant head. They are between 7-8 inches...I was thinking about doing some vertical perch stripes on a couple but I need to get the perfect perch color combo down… I hope I will get to use them

The pattern is similar to what I got Northen on last summer, only much bigger. My buddy in MN says that muskie and pike generally hit similar bait. So, my unprofessional opinon is that these should work. Good Luck

Jordan, is this your first foray into articulated flies?

Nope! I try and articulate everything i can, streamers nymphs... My trout "big ugly" streamer box is nearly completely articulated, they are fun to tie they really work and once you know how to do it well its only a few more steps and seconds over a normal fly!

Sounds like the makings of a future tying session.
