We are at the end now, at least for the guiding season. Water temp is falling about two degrees per night now and the lack of heating hours during the day just isn’t pulling it back up enough to keep it as level as it needs to be. It will level off in a few […]
I have to start this report with a story. We are in “bonus catfishing” now being October and the water temps are still in the high 60s. On October 2nd I took my former boss, the man who first introduced me to catfishing back in 2001 out for our annual day on the river. We […]
The past week has been a little up and down on the big fish bite but overall the catfish bite is outstanding. You still have to sort through a lot of little fish to get to the big fish but the big fish seem to be getting bigger and nicer each day. The best bites […]
Last week the water temperature dropped about 13 degrees in just four days. Now it is back up nine degrees and seemed to confuse the fish a little. Numbers are outstanding but to catch big fish you have to stay on the move until you run into them. Pattern is still the same as last […]
The cold front from late last week was harsh. Wearing socks let alone ice fishing gear in September is not my idea of fun. The water temperature dropped about 13 degrees in just four days. Surprisingly the bite did not slow all that much considering. Fishing is really good right now and getting better every […]
Fishing this week has been very good. Good numbers and great fish. It seems to be sort of a grind as you need to stay on the move but give good honest sits in each spot. Most spots are one or two and done before moving on so it seems slow but at the end […]
Sorry for the delay in reports. We had our main computer go down. The water is falling again and it seems to not have affected fishing all that much. The fish have moved from the OFF current edges to the middle very near the main current seam. This does take a little observation to find […]
Catfishing is getting better every day now. Fish are being caught most places on the river with mid-river holes being the best areas. One area that has NOT worked the past week is shallow/fast water. Sit times have been the old reliable 20-25 minutes with the first strike coming about 10 minutes in. Bait again […]
