Sauger 1-17-04

Don Hanson and I spent some time looking for sauger today. The action has slowed a bit for us compared with our last couple of outtings. We started above the Y and made a couple of drifts with some smaller fish coming to the boat, moved below the Y and got some nicer sauger. Super doos got most of the fish today. Chartruse pepper was a consistant color all day with sherbert, ice blue, white, and orange brown getting some fish also. Depths today ranged from 18′-24′. Here’s a shot of Don and a sauger.

Nice saug Hawg! Check out this pool 2 saug.

Or a pool 2 eye?

Joel, Nice pics. Thats a dandy sauger.

Kerry….However do you control Don’s excitement when he catches a fish!! . He just looks sooo excited!

Steve you should of saw him the first time we fished plastics together, after his 3rd or 4th fish on a doo he actually had a smile on his face.

Steve you are right, Kerry had to tell me over and over to settle down or I could’nt fish with him any more!

Sleep or no sleep, Don must’ve been doing one of his “fish at all costs” outings! Ever watchful for a tug on the line, he only had time to catch 20 winks during this photo of a sauger!
