Holy cow! Its only been 44-45 down here in P16. Guess the river will warm up fast.
April 7, 2014 at 10:55 am #1402373There is no nuke plant above pool 5a…
April 7, 2014 at 11:43 am #1402398Army corps had 40.4 as of 8am today.

I am aware of that but I generally don’t see the spread that far apart. 4-5 degrees maybe but not in the 9-10 variance range. 35.5 was the warmest I had found.

Thats about what we found to. 38 main channel. That will change quick this week.
April 7, 2014 at 3:14 pm #1402469I was out on sunday and saw between 38-41. The water is rising and starting to flow pretty good.
April 7, 2014 at 4:01 pm #1402475It must be warming up I saw a guy with a pontoon down there sunday!
April 7, 2014 at 8:40 pm #1402538Ya know, I did too. Good sign spring is here to stay!
April 8, 2014 at 5:11 pm #1402741Any water temp change this week @ all yet??? 70 degrees tomorrow
April 8, 2014 at 11:46 pm #1402814Another important number this time of year is the Flow,
today it went from 27,000 to 30,000.
Good Luck,
Jack
April 9, 2014 at 5:29 am #1402822Is more flow better or worse for fishing??

It doesn’t matter if you’re catching fish.
Sounds like a smart azz answer, but going back a couple years when the river was flooding, the locals were happy the high water and the 90,000 cfs flow was keeping everyone off the river.
They were having a ball catching fish.
(here comes the hate mail for letting that cat out of the bag)

…I HATE YOU.
…rrrApril 9, 2014 at 12:42 pm #1402941I think more flow gets more fish moving out of Pepin, and into the river system.
This year is at least behind in flow and temps from previous years. Most years the
Walleye spawn is in full swing by the 2nd week in April, not this year. Temps would need
to go up at least another 5-6 degrees. And Saugers trail a little later then the Walleyes.
Good Luck,
JackApril 10, 2014 at 8:14 am #1403114came in on sat and it was 37-38 degrees left tues night at 44 degrees.
April 10, 2014 at 8:19 am #1403116can you guess how the bite went?
Very jealous of the next 7 days.
