well for those wondering whats going on at pool 4….. the answer is a lit bit of everything…. today Stillakid and I caught 6 carp (up to 12#)… a bunch of whitebass… a few walleye and sauger… mostly small….. even a crappie…. we just went up to the dam, found a current break and anchored various places, tossing various bucktails, and plastics… best producer for us was an offbeat looking jig that Steve of Everts told me was a hot number… an 1/8 oz blue/white with an orange head… it caught pretty much everything…. after that it was bucktails of various other colors….. the water was a bit over bankfull but fairly clear…. fish were fairly close to shore or in big current breaks…. I did not see a lot of walleye/sauger action up towards the dam… we amused ourselves with the whites…. if your heart is set on walleyes I think your going to have to cover some ground… errrrr water….. work the shorelines, around logs, trees, and rocks…. and work some deeper current breaks… the fish are there.. they just seem to be preoccupied… or else they are not as fast as the whites… we probably caught over 30 whites.. mostly in the 15″ range…..some slightly bigger some slightly smaller… oh… and I suppose pulling 3 ways and cranks as suggested else where might turn ya some fish….
sooooo ya want to see the dam with all the gates raised?
ok… here ya go…….
