Mississippi River?
« on: April 23, 2007, 02:16:24 AM »
I plan on fishing the Redwing area this week for walleye and Sauger and was wondering if anyone has had any luck fishing there this year.

Hunting Guy,

You were right. We caught a little bit of everything from Redwing to Hager City to the dam. Saturday was great weather for a day on the Mississippi. We put some walleye, sauger and white bass in the boat. It was a great day.

Bearfat,

We had the best luck with red tail chubs and shiners, all smaller minnows with 1/8 oz jigs fishing current edges. We tried plastics and had no luck at all.
