    Recent water temps would be greatly appreciated. Dying to scratch the itch and begin late fall/winter river fishing. Thanks

    Hard frost on the windows when we came back to the dock.

    Funny you mentioned gloves, I seem to have lost one.

    Air temp has only a mild effect on a River water temp…as I posted previously, we need some decent flow to bring the cooler water down…
    50 degrees will start the “turnover” effect on Lake Pepin and bring the shad upriver…followed by predators

    It was 54 when I left Wed…so it has only dropped 1 degree
