    I have not been out much this year. Just want to know what the channels are hitting on right now? Me and my friend are going out tomorrow morning to a spot on the MN river so any ideas would great. Thanks Travis Good Fishin

    We were out yesterday out of the Judson ramp. Spent a lot of time push poling and dragging the boat through inches of water. Tough conditions and a few really small channels and a carp to show for it.

    How are conditions up by New Ulm?

    Kev, have you noticed a trend in the fall to switch from dip baits to cut baits in the fall?

    This year I found the local bait shop gives me their dead suckers for free. I continue to use one dip bait for scent and always dress my cut bait with smelly jelly triple X shad. I’m all about cheap bait and I’m doing very well this year.

    PS I get a little ticked when my posts are moved to the tournament side. Nobody goes there and well this section has been pretty boring lately. I see many of the older guys don’t post anymore. I’m going to be the next one that doesn’t if people keep messing with my legit posts.

    Nice going Kev. Looks like you pulled a big brute at the end and snuck into the green. I say congrats to anyone who can compete with the red river folks on other waters. Some good stuff you have over there.

    And what do you mean nobody goes there? There’s at least 4 posts in that thread!
