Get ready for some catfish shock. The forecast is everything we don’t want. Nice stable comfortable weather right to nasty hot. Water temps will be rising very fast into the 70s and shocking the fish for a few days and then I suspect the spawn will be close behind. In the meantime get out and […]
It’s been a crazy week for sure. We were on the best fishing of the year the early part of the week in one section and mediocre fishing in another section. Finally some much needed rain made everything cold and miserable and a huge downpour flooded one trib and nearly knocked out Drayton. So right […]
The nights are still cold but we have gotten water temps to 55. Bigger fish are starting to show up and the forecast says warmer temperatures beginning today and on. This should kick everything into high gear and get the big fish feeding even harder. Stay Tuned it is about to get crazy. To book […]
The water temperature finally reached 50 last Friday and the bite started improve a little each day. Lots of picking and pecking have some good solid hits mixed in. The big fish are coming alive right now and it appears it will only get better from here. There really is no pattern as there are […]
The weather has shaped up and the water temps have finally crossed 50. I figure it will be a few more days to get the fish really moving but we are going in the right direction. I will be scouting all next week getting a feel for the fish and we will be starting up […]
Not much has changed since last week. Right now we are waiting on heat. We just can’t get out of this high 30s and 40 days to get the water temp into the 50s. Next weeks forecast looks much better and if it holds we should be ready to roll on time by May 7th […]
Over the past week or so we have had some much needed precipt which brought the river up a couple feet. It’s been cooler so the fish are on hold for now but with a little heat it will be GO TIME. Right now we look to start scouting hard next week and begin guiding […]
The river is open and low. Water temps are just getting to 40 degrees and people are starting to venture out. At this rate it looks like we will be in full catfish mode in about two weeks. As of right now we will be taking customers by May 1 or even a bit before. […]
The ice is off at Grand Forks today. If the forecast holds we will be fishing cats in just a couple weeks. In my experience a cold snap will put a hold on that but one never knows this year. I realistically can see starting guiding the last week of April at the rate we […]
There has been no change in winter. The ice will be off the river very soon allowing for boat traffic. This is going to warm the water and make for a very early start to the season. I am anticipating very great fishing right out of the gate. We have lots of early openings available […]
