Thinking of taking Wed afternoon off for the Croix. How’s it going? The last few times I was out a week or so ago the saugers were pretty eager trolling and jigging. I just have to decide which section I want to fish. May even try some wing dams on pool 3 if the water is down enough. Thanks.
93 views not a post, Im thinking I’ll be out on the croix sometime today (wednesday) I’l be in the prescott area for a bit for sure, red lund indepthangling cap holler if your out there too. 
Let us know how whats going on. Haven’t been out for a week and plan on hitting it Thursday after work. Just unsure where to try. I haven’t had much luck on the Croix the last couple of outings, but I got some new fin tech jigs in the mail, and I want to give them a whirl…
It’s pretty hard not to connect with saugers trolling around Hudson this time of year but I just don’t want to hit that section very bad. I have season passes on two Croix ramps and the Hudson scam ramp isn’t one of them.
I launched there a week ago and of course payed the extortion fee only to find the dock unusable. It was about 4 feet out of the water. Nice. Don’t get me wrong. I love the town but the ramp cost tweaks me. I think I’m heading downstream.
I’ll be between Prescott and Kinni tomorrow and friday. Red Lund rebel, 40 merc, big white lab, swing on in or give a wave as you wing by.
I was in Prescott for several hours until about 6:00. I didn’t see any IDA hats.(forgot mine) Bite was slow during the afternoon and seemed to taper off to nothing by later afternoon. I left about 1/2 hour before dark so maybe there was a flury.
Got about 6 saugers, 1 eye and a few sheep. One of the saugers was an 18″ linebacker. A real brut looking sauger. All fish were keeper size except 1 sauger. Tried cranking wing dams for 2 hours. I hit about 7 and nothing at all. Baitfish presence has dwindled on pool 3 below Prescott where they were present recently. The wings have really been handing it to me this year but I am not giving up.
Yeah I ended not making it out, minutes (literally) before I hooked up the boat, I had a unforseen family problem to attend to, otherwise I’d have been out there. 
I would have been a nice day out there…. I wish I could have even THOUGHT about going out today…. 
I shouldn’t have went to Mille Lacs this weekend. Those tiny Croix fish just don’t seem to be as appealing. Hopefully that will wear off in 5..4..3..2..1 Ok I’m ready.
Mike,
You get some big ones up on Mille Lacs?
Yes. Check the Mille Lacs forum.
