FISH BEING CAUGHT
|
The white bass fishing continues to get better. There are a lot of white bass between 10″ and 15″ being caught.There are still fair numbers of male walleye in the river, most are running between 14″ and 20″. |
White bass and white perch fishing is very good. Anglers are catching large numbers of both species. Walleye fishing is slow. |
|
BEST BAITS
|
White bass anglers are having the best success with shiners fished below a bobber.
The best bait to catch walleye are floating jig heads tied about 18-24 inches above a weight. The amount of weight depends on the amount of flow. At low flow try 3/8 oz weight; at high flow try 3/4 0z weight. Tip the jig with a brightly colored plastic tail–pink, green, yellow–fluorescent colors seem to work the best. |
A variety of baits will work well for white bass including jigs, jigs tipped with minnows, or minnows fished under a bobber.

BEST LOCATIONS

COMMENTS
|
White bass fishing should continue to be very good.Walleye fishing should continue to be fair through the week. Some walleye shorter than the 15-inch minimum length limit are being caught. Do NOT keep any walleye shorter than 15 inches. Take a ruler with you. |
White bass and white perch fishing should continue to be good this week.
Anglers should still be aware that some walleye shorter than the 15-inch minimum length limit are being caught. Do NOT keep any walleye shorter than 15 inches. Take a ruler with you. |
