Just kidding.
Usually I fish the Mississippi river by Champlin/Anoka. I know the gates are open at the CoonRapids dam for repairs.
Does anyone know how long the repairs will last or if there is a website with updates?
This part of the river is very close to me for a quick fix during the week.
I hear ya, it is really tough to get to the areas that I normally fish this time of year (south of champlin). I put in at the Rum access a couple weeks ago and that first 1.5 miles down is sketchy to say the least, a lot of 2′ water, I didn’t hit any rocks but those riffles had me going. The low water had really concentrated the smallies and cats on what little structure there is. Finding fish took about 2 minutes. I usually troll with hot n tots and glass raps, white and silver are best. With the river moving much faster than normal up there I had no shoreline action at all. Everything was in 9′-13′ relating to humps/debris. PM me if you want an exact locale, I have been working so much I may not see the water again until it is frozen.
U guys know how the water levels are on the Rum. I hope to get out there this week. I will be over on the St. Croix for sure but would like to hit the rum too.
When are you heading out Adam? Im up for some fishing the next few days.
