Anyone been up war eagle ?

Thanks for the report jdelow77. Sure helps to know before making the 2 hr drive down there to find out no whites have made it there yet. Thanks again!

Ran up to WE last night, fished for about two hours-down from the mill, around the bend and along the ledges.  Only got one  smallmouth.  Water was clearing, could see about 2 1/2 ft..

Heading out Thursday , I figure by then the weather and water should be perfect , now for some fish ..

I'm planning to fish up the other river on thursday. I'm concerned that these cold nights will screw it up. I can't fish the late shift so the cold mornings don't help me much, though the walleye don't seem to mind.

I fished right near war eagle camp a couple of days ago and marked a bunch but only one hook up. I'm sure they were whites but maybe I didn't have what they wanted.  Gotta keep picking at it I guess. I'll have my "big fish" day n e time.   Just gotta keep picking away I reckon.

I can't go until the afternoon so ,I'm not worried about the colder mornings , I know they are catching whites up war eagle , got a buddy that's been hammering them ...and small walleye too 

[jdelow77]

There are lots of suckers in the river right now , had a lot of hits and what felt like decent hook ups but lost a bunch of fish , the water is very low right now ...long story short , no whites and three sucker , two of which were huge !!!

I saw a ton of suckers too, and some giant fish playing in the shallows. spawning carp maybe. I fished yesterday and got on a hot white bass bite. I caught them nearly every cast from 830 to 11 or so and then tried for walleye. I zeroed there but dipped a brush pile for a second and caught a couple of crappie. So I spent the rest of my day crappie fishing. There are a lot of fish in the river right now. I ran as far up as my jet would let me but the water was down quite a bit.

How far is it from the camp to the mill??

[hoglaw]

The camp is down by sidewalk hole with the big dock right?  It's at least six miles
