I made a quick trip through Red Wing yesterday on my way home from Mille Lacs to check on the progress of the fall sauger run. As others have described here recently, the bite is on!
I’ll talk about the fishing elsewhere, but I wanted to share with the Humminbird forum guests some screen captures from yesterday. These show the power of Humminbird Fishing Systems at identifying typical river structures, as well as the fish that relate to them.
In this first screen capture from my 1197, I had just passed over the deep tip of a wingdam. This dam is clearly shown on the right hand side of the split screen as a dark line extending from shore. I was running the new Lakemaster for Humminbird map chip, which (like the other Lakemaster products) includes the wingdams on Pool 4. The main body of the dam is to the left of the boat, and you can see the dam rising from the bottom on the left hand side of the Side Image (with just its tip on the right).
