Greetings All:
Well, Labor Day weekend 2012 has finally arrived. This is the un-official end of the Summer season for most folks with the kids now back in school. For some of us though it is a time when we can fish our favorite waters without the pesky jet skis and heavy boat traffic.
For this weekend though, look for some great angling action happening all along the Mississippi River. From Pool 5 up North through Pool 14, fishing is really turning on. Lots of nice big White Bass are starting to show up on the fast tapering flats and rocky areas. Also fish the long wing dams and you will find some good action there also.
For you folks that like catfish, well, get yourself some dip bait and head out on the river. Catfish are biting well with many nice eater size fish available. Fish near deadfalls in the water that have some depth near by. You bass anglers??, well, get out those plastic baits and head into the side sloughs and backwaters. Note: Many backwaters are hard to enter due to low water conditions, but when you can get back there you will find bass fishing good.
For you folks just heading out to do some boating, use caution on the river. Low waters have many obstructions just below the surface where you cannot see them.
Enjoy the Labor Day weekend, be safe in the outdoors and save a few fish for me.....
