    I don’t fish flooded water to often. I was wondering water is the best method for catching eyes and saugers in dirty conditions. Thanks for your help Jim

    I would bring your .22 and hunt them from shore. They’ll be so shallow that I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re feeding on acorns! That’s been my exp. with dirty water anyways.

    When the water comes up and floods, many great opportunities present themselves. I am able to consistantly catch walleye along with other species from several shore spots when I don’t have time to get the boat in the water. Usually these spots have moving water from a secondary channel, inlet, stream or river close to them. Many are very popular, so fishing in a crowd is often the case. I use bright lures that often either rattle or vibrate. Jig heads with rattles and blade baits are two examples. Glow jig heads are another choice. Tip with a minnow or a platic tail depending on fish preference.
