MISSISSIPPI RIVER UPDATE!!

Greetings All:
Well, fishing in the tailwaters at dams 11-12 & 13 are producing some fish. Problem is that most walleye and sauger not much bigger than the minnows you are using for bait.  Very few keeper fish at this time. Best bet is to head down river and fish wingdams and fast tapering rocky shorelines. Some keeper fish available at these locations. Look for the long wingdams for best results as they seem to be holding more quality fish.  Jig and minnow presentations along with trolling 3-way rigs will work well in these areas. Expect to lose a few jigs to snags. If your not occasionally hanging up, your not in the fish zone.

For the next few days the weather forecast to be a cool and wet one so if your planning on going out, don't forget that rain gear.

Good luck and enjoy the open water fishing that is still available.
