WEEKEND FISHING LOOKING GOOD!!!

Greetings All:
Look for some good action this weekend on the Mississippi. Excellent catfish on dip baits in backwaters and side sloughs. Nice bass action on topwater frogs in pad fields. Panfish scattered, crappie here and there, gills on weed bed edges. On main river, some really nice stripers showing up on steep tapering sandy banks that get deep fast. Early and late best for stripers. Use a white 1/4th or 1/8th ounce hair jig for great results.


Enjoy yourself and save a few for me!!!

RIVER STILL A MESS!!

Greetings All:
Well, the Mississippi is still a mess in pools 12 & 13 with high, dirty water the norm. Lots of floating debris making angling tough. Best bet is get into those backwaters and fish for some nice catfish using stink baits.


Look for river to slowly start returning to normal if forecast rain is not to heavy again. All in all, get out and give it a try,,,it still beats cutting the grass!!!


Good Luck and Enjoy:    Lastcast,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Mike Cyze
