The heat of the last few days has pushed water temps into the low 70s. If this holds the spawn is not far off. Here is what we know, we have lots of big fish in the system and the spawn is only a couple weeks long. So far 2020 has been a great season. […]

What started out as a challenging May has become the best bite I have seen in years. The conditions are absolutely perfect and the fish are eating just about everything. If  you head them off on the right current seam you can ride the bite for hours.  This bite will only last a week or […]

The pre spawn bite is now on. River conditions are about perfect in both level and temperature. The fish have finally moved into the faster current and are hitting good instead of picking at the bait. We have a few dates left in May and Early June. To reserve your 2020 trip Call 701-739-5808 or […]

We have been out a few times and the quality of the fish is outstanding. A huge cold front has set over us keeping water temps low but the river is stable and in great shape. We are going to scout again the end of the week and start taking trips the 16th. We have […]

Ramps in Grand Forks are open and East Grand Forks is not far behind. The river is still falling fairly fast and the fish are still a bit messed up. We scouted today just to get a look. The catfish are out of the current near the slack water. They are confused as I mentioned […]

The ramps should open any day and the river is ready. A couple days to scout it out and get some new video and we should be ready to roll. Conditions are about perfect. More to come later this week. To reserve your 2020 trip Call 701-739-5808 or email braddurick@gmail.com .    

Not much has changed from my last prediction. Everything is shaping up perfectly. Hopefully the city has ramps opened up later this week so we can start scouting things out. I am still holding onto May 8th or 9th for a starting date.  Based on the calls I have taken over the past few days […]

The flood is nearly over. The river should be under flood stage next weekend and level off the next week. Right now I am thinking about May 8th I will begin scouting around and will be guiding shortly after that. If you are interested in an early pre spawn trip get ahold of me to […]

So our best year ever is well, on hold now by the looks of it. The flood is early and I think we will be fishing by May 10th easy but this coronavirus thing has the world on hold and I am unsure if they will let me start guiding that early. It is still […]

Winter has a firm grip on us right now. There is some strong prognosis of flooding. For now we are setting opening weekend for Memorial weekend. When we know more we will make adjustments to the schedule. So with that the phone has been ringing and weekends are starting to fill up. Lots of exciting […]
