Samkam1 Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 Put in at Aldrich on the 11th....fished a big portion of the river. The fish were stacked up on the graph, not very many active ones though. Caught a couple small white bass and crappie on jigs tipped with minnows. Most people we talked to had similar results. It was overcast all day and the water was around 54 degrees. A couple 75 degree days and some warm spring rains and the river is going to explode with walleye, crappie, and white bass. (we are hoping!) I will keep you guys posted on how we do the next couple weeks.
Dutch Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 The bite was definitely slow today, caugth 14 in the first 30 minutes and 18 in the next 6 hours.
Samkam1 Posted March 13, 2007 Author Posted March 13, 2007 Started at 5:15 on the 12th from the shore about 1/4 mile down from the old metal bridge (10-14ft holes, 62 degree water temp)....caught around 25 whites and 2 largemouth, one largemouth was around 3 lbs. I thought I had a big walleye until he jumped about 3 feet out of the water :-) Kept 8 of the biggest whites. They are starting to turn on...I am hoping the walleye do the same. All liked the chartruese swimming minnow. Good luck!!!
Dutch Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 It was worse today than yesterday. I am going to lay off for a while.
Samkam1 Posted March 14, 2007 Author Posted March 14, 2007 They moved up river. Chartruese jig again...caught so many whites my arms are sore. Didn't get any walleye or crappie, but I saw some guys with limits of crappie and saw a nice walleye caught.
