Location: Freedom, WI | Well boys let the games begin. There were 3 boats out yesterday afternoon and around 20 guys casting off of the Penninsula by the dam. I gave her a shot from shore for an hour with no luck, but did see two small males caught in that time. The boats were fishing the channel edges near Fox Point Launch. Boats launched at Metro and made the run up dodging icebergs the whole way. At Fox Point there was still aorund 15 yards of ice that appeared to be fairly thick. With this rain and wind in the forecast I would imagine that it will probably get pushed out. There will be a zoo on the river this weekend! |

Location: Colgate, WI | Docks are in at both launches by De Pere. We did great Monday but not so great today. I couldn't believe the number of boats out there today it was nuts. That wind was 25-30 out of SW and with all the anchored up guys it was tough to drift.

| I couldn't believe the number of boats today either! I stayed away from the crowd most of day. Caught 5 nice ones by the 172 bridge and then made my way closer to the dam and picked up some more. I did catch one FAT 24incher. That fish had to be at least 5lbs. With the dirty water, yellow and green worked best for me. It was nice to get out for the first. |
