well took my first drive down to look to see how fishing it on river–surprised to see no one out there fishing at all–I know its was cold–but no fish houses at all–maybe 6-8–few years back it was loaded with houses–sounds like fishing not any good here any more?? fish all move down river more? no bait fish?? anyone have any idea??
No, but I would appreciate it if you secretly discover they are biting then send me a PM before this weekend. 
well I might try next week–sounds like all catching is lil ones–most guys moved down south end of pepin I guess–sounds like too–17″ ice–but not all over am sure–but if I go and get some I will let you know–let me know to
6-8 years ago there were allot of saugers going there, the word got out and they got wiped off the bottom of pool four like blades of grass in a wild fire for three years……. (DNR officers claimed they had not seen or herd of so many people catching fish like this since before the nuc plant was put in) one officer claimed there were on average 150 to 200 shacks/people actively fishing everyday for nearly all one of the ice seasons. do the math we harvested to many fish. there were also bad spawning years mixed in there between the fishery being hit so hard and bad spawn years the sauger populations have crashed. there not gone but it is not a blink of an eye what it used to be. they will come back just need a few more years of bad fishing less pressure and some good spawn years.
maybe would help if they close the season when the inland season closes

X2 don’t expect any kind of slot changes either or added slot on saugers

well that makes sense whats been said about fishing shacks–I fished there about 3 years ago and went about 3-4times a week and yes at least 100 shacks out there–now I think I seen 8-12 out there–am all for having season close along with inland–makes sense to me!!
