Unfortunately, The last few weekends I have been fishing the Vermillion river for walldogs. I sort of bit myself for not giving the Root a shot on Saturday, should have been fantastic! I wouldn’t necessarily say it is too cold, but it might take a tad more coaxing!
Do you know where the rendering plant is in Chatfield? They allow people to park there and walk down to fish. Just East of there is the confluence of the NOrth and Middle branches. Good size hole there. It can be hit or miss, but when they are on, you can catch some real nice fish. I’ve caught a large variety of fish out of this whole from rainbow trout to mooneye and of course smallies! Give’er a go, suppose to warm a tad on Wednesday.
