    Fished Lynxville last saturday with no success. Only about a handfull of boats. Didn’t see anyone catch anything. Alot of grass in the water and big wads of it floating down all over.

    Good luck

    fished Genoa last weekend Saturday and Sunday. Shakedown outing for a new boat. Saturday all I did was watch folks catch little sauger, I couldn’t buy a bite. Sunday my son had 2 in the boat before I even had my jig in the water. We were fishing too shallow Saturday and color seemed to matter a bit. Caught quite a few fish but few keepers.

    I’ll be in P9 this weekend working the sloughs off the main channel. Running cranks if the grass flow isn’t too bad or dragging jigs and ring worms if it is. Will be my first time up this Fall but they have to be there, the water temp showes it

    I can’t tell you which would be better…I was up to the S-Curves to the dam on 10 two weeks ago and the gras was so bad that I just gave up…

    Mark’s report of the activity level up at the Genoa tailwaters is a good pretrip resource for anybody contemplating a trip to the northern 9 boundry

    I just got back from Lynxville. I caught only one 16 inch walleye and a bunch of very small saugers. The grass makes it hard to do anything but vertical jigging, and even then you’re cleaning grass off your jigs every few minutes. If you can get above the grass, head north. I think next time I’m heading to Red Wing, I’ll drive the extra two hours to not have to deal with that mess.

    chose genoa plenty of grass and plenty of fish only all on the small size, fished at the dam, wing dams, sand, and main channel, caught fish every place but no keepers, did see some keeping the cigar saugers that were biting grass is definitly a headache vertical jigging is about your only option, and even that is challenging making a trip to red wing in a couple weeks hope its cleaner water up there.

    Listen to the game in the boat Saturday. Looks like I get to use something other then my shirt for butt wipe. Both days the grass controlled how we fished. Jig and ring worm with meat put the fish in the boat. Out of the 40 to 50 we caught only about 12 to 14 got cleaned. All snoggers with one 19″ eye. Had a 9# 6oz Ell Pout slime my carpet.
