Headed down to the Red Wing area this weekend with the wife. I’ve never fished this area this late in the year. What should I expect bite wise? Planned on fishing the river Saturday and head down to Pepin on Sunday. Not to concerned about size just wanna put some fish in the boat. Any general tips or reports will be greatly appreciated.

Water is pretty muddy.
We had ok luck with crawlers and jigs. Mostly shallow. 5 to 10 feet. Color didn’t matter much.

Caught about everything that there was in the lake to catch, no walleyes over 14.5 inches, alot of sheephead, stripers. Keep 4 nice saugers 15-17.5, and 3 perch. Tried depths from 6 foot to 22 feet best action was 10 to 12 feet of water, jointed raps were the best. Kinda windy wanted to go to head of lake but stayed where we were.
