WEEKEND FISHING OUTLOOK GREAT ON THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER!!!

Greetings All:
Well, the coming weekend and all of next week looking great for getting out on the river. Very mild weather is forecast with near record warm temps all next week. Look for temps in the 70's in the Tri-states area.  River is wide open and lots of fish available. Water conditions excellent also. 
Look for good walleye & sauger action on wingdams and off points. Also steep tapering rocky shorelines holding fish. If you like crowds, fish up at the dams. But for excellent, no crowd fishing, move downriver to some of the many hot-spots available. You will most likely have them to yourself. Best part is lots of nice fish available down river and not very many anglers aware of this fact. Many thin k that all fish in the early Spring are up at the dams. NOT SO!!!  While they are up there playing bumper-boats, you can excel down river. Jig & minnow rigs working well cast and also 3-way rigs for trolling deeper water. Use nice lively minnows in the 3" size range. Also as a bonus, lots of nice Northern in the side sloughs and backwaters available on spinnerbaits.

Good Luck and I hope you get a chance to get out and enjoy.
