    I just purchased a Red Lable this summer, and had the same problem right out of the box. I quickly learned that I was not letting off of the trigger before trying to fire my second shot. I quickly learned to take my finger off the trigger completely, and have had no problems since.

    Greg716 – Your correct that you can not fish between the two bridges, but it is the I-90 bridge and the railroad bridge that you can not fish. There is an area there they call the “Hole” – it is along the I-90 bridge on the west side of the river where when they walleyes are in spawning on the Rip Rap they relate to the deeper water over the hole, and it can literally be like fishing in a barrel. This was definately a hot spot until they closed fishing in that area about 8 years ago. The bridge’s I was refering to is the old bridge in town, and the I-90 bridge.
    – I am heading out there wed. night, and will be there all weekend. Good luck to you!

    Jigs, Thanks for the info.
    I usually get out there 1-2 times every spring. Some of out best fishing has come between the two bridges along the rip rap on the Chamberlain side of the river. Usually pitching fireball jigs tipped with minnows or a 3″ Gulp minnow, in shallow (2 fow) and working them back out to 10-12 fow. Jigs tipped with ringworms work really well here too. Although this can be very productive, you loose a lot of jigs. Have had a lot of success as well fishing the outside edges of the main river channel north of town, verticle jigging the same presentation. Do you know were they letting water out of the dam daily? Fishing up there can be awesome while the water is running, but then will completely shut down when they shut the water off. Again, thanks for the info!
