Angler X Outdoors
Hello Friends,
It looks like we skipped spring and went right into summer!
Ice fishing on the Upper Mississippi River is seemingly a distant memory now that many boat landings are open. Be careful if you still plan to get a few more ice fishing memories in, the ice is quickly melting.
Spring fishing is well underway as walleye, sauger, and perch begin to migrate upstream. Smallmouth bass will be moving out of their wintering holes and feeding aggressively around rock structures. We will be using jig and plastics, blade baits, spoons, and hair jigs.
The potential to catch fish exists on any current seam, back eddy, or rock pile. Yes, there are fish at the dams, but fish can also be caught downstream, away from the crowds. So be safe, have fun, and good luck!
