Hi Gang,
The river was at 4.0 with ????CF of flow and ?? degrees at the beginning of the week and at the end of the week we had 4.9 with 32,500CF of flow and 34 degrees. The BP was 30.20 and rising.
We had several ramps open up this week so we had a chance to get on the water to check out several spots. We had to break some ice out of the way to get to the Walleye’s but it was worth it. It sure is nice to have a Snyder Built Jet Boat that is so versatile it even doubles as an ice breaker.

Trip #5 – No Trip
Trip #6 – No Trip
This was the first we have been able to fish since November. There is still ice on the water so if you go out please be careful and always keep looking up river for an ice flow that may have broken loose.
Now would be a good time to book a Walleye Trip. We will continue to try to dial in the bass as more of the river opens up to us.
Next Friday starts the Bass Pro Shops Spring Classic and it kicks off with a visit from Kevin VanDam. There will be a lot of great specials so stop by get some autographs and cash in on some really special deals.
We will have our Koinonia Booth set up during the classic and we will be doing some seminars as well. Please stop by and see us and share some of your fishing stories with us.
HAVE A GREAT WEEK AND LUV THE TUG………REB
