Greetings All:
Well, after a great Thanksgiving Day yesterday I figured I'd get out and work off some of that great food. Started the day with a great pheasant hunt in which I was lucky enough to get my birds. Nice big roosters with lots of meat. They will taste great broiled in my special wine sauce and covered with spices.
After lunch it was out on the Mississippi River for some great angling. Walleye were kind of off today but the sauger bite was excellent. In just a few hours caught numerous nice chunky fish on jig/minnow rigs. Ran low on minnows and switched over to a 3" plastic shad body, silver sides, black strip on back on a plain jig head and hammered the sauger once again. When the clouds moved in, bite really took off with nice fish the rule. Was fishing in Pool-13, approximately 8 miles downstream from the dam in Bellevue. No other anglers down river at all?, guess they were all up at the dam, LOL.
If you get a chance, try to get out before the weather turns bad. Rain predicted this Saturday but Sunday forecast to be a better day, just much cooler in the mid-30's to mid-40's. So make sure you bring warm clothes.
Good luck and great fishing. Regards: Lastcast,,,,,Mike Cyze, lastcast13@yahoo.com
