Cast and let the Stalker sink a little. Make short jerks with your rod tip downward
to get the the Stalker to glide left and right. This is the "walk the dog" action
that is killer for musky and pike. This is a slow and steady retrieve. Stop
occasionally to let the lure sit then restart your retrieve. The great thing about
the Stalker is that it can a "Crazy Ivan", which means it actually turns all the way
around and looks backward. How can a following musky resist?

Cast and let the Stalker sink. This time reel and jerk the rod down, over and over,
all in one motion. After moving the bait 15 to 20 feet stop and let the lure sink a
little, then re-start the fast jerk and reeling motion again. Some days this fast
darting action triggers strikes and not follows. When fishing post spawn muskies
this fast darting retrieve triggers the killer instinct in big fish. Even fish in a
neutral mood can't resist a bait fish darting past them. Sometimes a fast moving
bait like the Stalker can cause a "reaction bite" from the wariest musky.

Cast and let the Stalker sink just a bit. Reel fast and stop, over and over, to make
it look like a wounded then fleaing bait fish. This is very similar to the second
retrieve noted above, only it's easier on the arms and wrist. After a day of heavy
lifting, you'll appreciate letting the reel do some of the work.
