Pool 12/13 – Any Action?

I have not been out on the river as of yet and was wondering if there is any walleye action on pool 12 or 13. I have seen very few boats out.

So – anybody got any pool 12 or 13 action they would like to share. Just looking for a starting point for the holiday weekend.

Can’t help you much but I do know that the lower part of P9 had a mayfly hatch so I’m thinking you may find a few down that away

haven’t heard any good reports from 13 yet this week but the water should be very fishable by the weekend.its been high but is dropping like a rock today and tommorow.

Guttenberg has been pretty dead. The corp opened the dam and the fishing has been pretty tough. As far as Dubuque or Bellevue, not so sure. I would imagine they’re pretty tough right now, too.

Fished P13 on 5/20. High and muddy. Pitched hair jigs and threw 3-ways most of the morning. zip. The river is dropping fast for the next few days, which should improve conditions until today’s MN rains come down next week.

Thanks folks. That pretty much solidifies the same stuff that I have been hearing. Yeah, the mayflies are beginning. Not many yet, but we all know how THAT turns out.

I plan on hitting a couple of unfished, back channel areas to see if I can scare up anything this weekend. I am not holding out any high hopes. Jigs w/meat, 3 ways and cranks are on the short list.

Heck, maybe I will go try for some jumbo perch and forget the walleye.
