Was out on P2 yesterday with the boy and his girlfriend. The fishing was pretty darn good. Caught mostly walleye with a 25.5 incher being the largest of the day. Also had some white bass, sheeps and 1 smallie.

Trolling or pitching? I’m guessing you were trolling.
Looks like a great day.

Caught a variety of walleye and sauger with a dandy 22.5″ sauger. Found them in 14-18 fow and could have caught them all day had we stayed. Fun morning!
September 20, 2017 at 8:15 pm #1716344Slow night for dad and I on the upper part of Pool 2. We managed about 5-6 walleye and some other fish too including one drag ripping drum. Lots of leaves made trolling cranks tough. Not to self, tell dad to zoom next time

Bailed from work earlier just to sneak in a quick 2 hours on the river, home by 5 for dinner with the kids. Managed a couple decent sassy smallmouths trolling cranks.
There is still a lot of debris in the water. Some splitshot a little above the bait helped to catch grass and leaves. Days like this I was grateful to be running metered braid. I could tell instantly when I was fouled, and it was quick and easy to get the right amount of line back out after clearing the trebles.
I can’t make the hog haul but I’m looking forward to hearing how you guys do!
