The way that I understand it is that Green has more quantity than Cave Run while Cave Run has more quality fish. If you are a beginning muskie fisherman, I would defenetly go to Green to learn techniques. The reason being is that the areas of Cave Run that hold the fish (Licking River, Beaver Creek, Zilpo Flats) all either have extremely difficult navigating conditions or heavy cover that require a good technique. Its very frustrating on the river having your lower unit torn up hit by a stump every 5 minutes or being on the flats thinking you have a fish and you pull in about 15 pounds of weeds. Green is a bit more manageable and the fish are easier to find.

Even though I didn't catch him, about 10 years ago I was on Green fishing with my dad and we were fishing for bluegill against the dam. I had a bite and when I set the hook, about a 35 inch muskie came flying vertical out of the water about 5 feet away from us.....My line instantly backlashed from the strain on my ultralight spinning reel's drag and he got away. Think about a wow moment.
