Cold weather fishing

The temps have definitely cooled off recently, therefore water temps are beginning to be at a reasonable level. I am just wondering if anyone has seen a change in action since this has been happening.

3 fish in a week. Seen lots of others. For me it is definitely going better.

I definately saw a difference this past weekend, I spent both days pulling cranks on the Croix and found the fish very shallow early and eager to bite. As the sun made it’s way up and the boat traffic increased, they slid out into deeper water and became more finicky, still managed to keep a couple of nice eaters but stopped myself from fishing any deeper than 20′, I just don’t like taking fish from deep water with high temps and expect them to be ok when released.

X2 cooler water temps = lots of fun for this guy

the feed bags will be on before too long! lots of fatties will be hitting the boat hopefully!

Im headed out all day tomorrow and Friday Probably Bald Eagle, White Bear, and Waconia.

Good luck. 4 hours on Waconia yesterday = zero sign of muskies

Stuck this one today. First Fall Fatty of the year. Hopefully follow it up with a bigger one tomorrow.
