Usually only post on MuskieFirst. Anyways, I was out on pool 13 this past saturday it was perfect fishing weather, 80 degrees and cloudy/spitting all day. We only got a 4 walleyes and 1 sauger. All came on 1/4 oz jig heads w/ twister tipped with minnow. Look for deep holes or creek inlets. The fish seemed to be following the baitfish in front of the creek inlets. Not too familiar with this pool but we also caught about 30 largemouth 2 smallies and a few channels.

Thants all i got, K-man

You are right on those largemouths. The wings are full of them. Alot of fun with them. The walleyes were tougher. The river has nothing for flow and is major low. Alot of rockpiles just below the waterline. Water temp was 85 and more hot weather is in store for this week.

Water is up and dirty but should start settleing down. Charts are showing it dropping quick if we dont get anymore RAIN. Be glad we are not haveing to go to the IL River. At Lasalle it was going to crest at the historic high of 32ft. At the mwc this spring without going into alot of searching was about 25ft.
