Baker Musky Lures: A Proven Weapon on the St. Lawrence River

At Moon Phase Charters, we spend more days on the water than just about anyone, and that time on the St. Lawrence River has taught us one simple truth: confidence in your lures matters. When musky fishing windows are tight and opportunities are few, you need baits that perform exactly how they’re supposed to, every single cast. That’s where Baker Musky Lures have earned a permanent spot in our spread.

Built for Big Water and Bigger Fish

The St. Lawrence is not forgiving water. Heavy current, expansive structure, and constantly changing conditions demand lures that track true, hold depth, and stay consistent at a wide range of speeds. Baker Musky Lures are built with these realities in mind. Their baits are rugged, balanced, and designed to handle both aggressive retrieves and slow, deliberate presentations—critical when musky moods shift with weather fronts and moon phases.

From early-season movement to late-season feeding windows, Baker lures give us the flexibility to adapt without constantly second-guessing our setup.

Triggering Strikes When It Counts

Musky fishing is a game of timing, and at Moon Phase Charters we pay close attention to moon phases, barometric pressure, and daily feeding windows. Baker Musky Lures shine during those key moments when fish are active but selective. Their action is clean and purposeful—enough vibration and flash to draw attention without spooking pressured fish.

We’ve seen time and again that Baker baits excel at:

  • Drawing follows into committed strikes

  • Holding depth in current

  • Staying effective at both fast and slow speeds

When a fish decides to eat during a short window, these lures help make sure the opportunity doesn’t slip away.

Confidence for Guides and Clients Alike

As guides, our job is not just to put clients on fish—it’s to give them confidence. There’s nothing better than handing someone a lure you know works and watching their belief grow with every cast. Baker Musky Lures consistently produce fish for beginners and seasoned anglers alike, making them ideal for charter situations where reliability matters.

Durability is another major plus. Musky fishing is hard on gear, and Baker lures are built to take abuse from rocks, current, and violent strikes without losing their action.

A Staple in the Moon Phase Arsenal

We don’t rely on hype or trends—we rely on results. Baker Musky Lures have proven themselves season after season on the St. Lawrence River, earning their place as a core part of the Moon Phase Charters program.

Whether we’re targeting fish during peak moon periods or grinding through tougher conditions, these lures give us the consistency and performance we demand.

If you’re serious about musky fishing and looking to stack the odds in your favor, Baker Musky Lures are absolutely worth a spot in your box—and there’s a good chance they’ll end up being one of your go-to baits, just like they are for us.
