Right now with the lake still up a little bit you can catch them shallow in the bushes. However, with the water temps up the mortality rate is pretty high, like RA said. The best times are Feb-May and then it slows in the summer until early October-December. In the spring downsize your baits, they love lipless cranks, small spinnerbaits, and jerkbaits early in the year. In the fall throw the biggest baits you've got like 3 OZ Grimm Reaper spinnerbaits, Magnum Bulldawgs, and big inline bucktails like the Bluegrass Beast. Cave Run muskies are almost always around grass, the Zilpo flats, Scotts Creek, and Beaver Creek are good areas to look. My favorite colors are White/Chartreuse and Black. If your throwing a spinner I've always had luck with Gold blades. In the heat of summer and the middle of winter alot of people troll deep baits (lil Earnies & Jakes) on break lines. Hope this helps.
