It’s my first year fishing the river and I’ve been spending most of my time in Pool 2. We started out down by the 494 bridge and had no luck. Then, thanks to this forum went down by the dam and at least had some action. We caught a bunch of small catfish and a couple dozen walleyes on a jig and minnow. Unfortunately, there wasn’t much for size. Anyone been having any better luck? I’ve heard the bigger fish run down by the dam, but when?
Putting up with the small fish and light bites was all worth watching my buddy take his first catfish off the hook. I gave him a glove and a pair of tongs and you’d swear he was taking a deadly cobra off the hook.
Good times on the river.
