Finally dug the boat out of the backyard and made the trip to the old Miss yesterday (3/19). Fished with two buddies below the dam at Lynxville. Action was pretty slow as we got on the water around 7:30 a.m., and it never picked up much. Caught one egg-laden 16″ female sauger and a few 14 to 15 inch male walleyes. Launch conditions were good, with some large chunks of ice floating, and the water was running fairly low but on the rise and getting murky. A fair number of anglers out there, all having a pretty slow day. All in all a good test run for the fishing gear, good to finally get on the water!
