Mississippi River Pool 4 Walleye Report Minnesota

It was a Great day to be on the water..With two great people John and Annie Martin..from Hayfield Minnesota.

Today was my 48 Birthday..And did these two help me celebrate…We conservatively had over 50 fish to the boat today. There were a couple drifts we didn’t go two hundred yards and had 12 fish in the boat…It Was a SUPER DOO DAY!!!! Here is Annie with a released fish. These two were very good on sorting out the smaller male keepers.

We didn’t have any big fish today. I stayed vertical in 20 feet or more most the day. We had four walleyes to the boat the biggest being 18 inches.

I stayed on the numbers most the day didn’t go piggy hunting.. The sauger for me were deeper today then in the past few days..Why I’m not sure.

The Super Doos were the ticket today..and just making a few minor adjustments as the day went on..Sun, wind, etc..

The flow today was about the same as yesterday. The gates are down and water rolling over the tops.

Here is a photo of one the bigger sauger just about 21 inches…

This was a Great way to spend my birthday..

Thanks John and Annie..You two rock..We fished a bankers day off the trailer about 8:45am and back on the trailer by 4:00pm.. And in between about the best vertical jigging the ole Mississippi has to offer.

Here is one last photo of today catch.

When I'm not fishing or working I'm looking for nitecrawlers...and Tournament Angler for the past 20 plus years.
