Hi Gang,
The river was at 6.0 with 55,900CF at the beginning of the week and at the end of the week we had 5.2 with 38,500CF of flow and 66 degrees.
1. Trip #1 – Guide Scouting Trip – This was on Wednesday and we fished from 3:30 to 6:30 PM and we boated 20 Flatheads. The largest was 18# and we caught them on Live and Cut bait. We had 5.0 – 33,800 CF – Falling – Stained and 65 degrees.
2. Trip #2 – Guide Trip – This was on Thursday and was a half day PM trip. We boated 25 Flathead and the largest was 14#. We caught them on Live and Cut bait. We had 4.8 – 31,000 CF - Falling – Stained and 66 degrees. It was sunny with a BP of 30.40 and rising.
3. Trip #3 – Guide Scouting Trip - This was on Thursday and we fished from 8:00 to 1:00 PM and we boated 40 Smallmouth. The largest was 19” and we caught them all on soft plastics. We had 4.8 – 31,000CF – Falling – Stained and 66 degrees. It was sunny with a BP of 30.40 and rising.
4. Trip #4 – Guide Trip – This was a half day Saturday AM trip and we fished from 9:00 to 1:00 PM. We boated 16 Flathead and the largest was 16#. We caught them all on live and cut bait. We had 5.2 – 38,500 CF – Rising – Stained and 66 degrees. It was cloudy with a BP of 30.40 and falling.
5. Trip #5 – Making Bait – This was Saturday afternoon and we fished from 3:30 to 5:30 PM and we boated 73 Sunfish. We caught them all on Jig/worm combo. It was sunny and warm.
6. We now have our Catfish Gold Punch Bait in Stock. It comes in original and blood and the cost is $6.95 per pint.
7. This past week was one of the better weeks in months with the Bass fishing and the Catfish fishing being very good.
8. The catfish are starting to bite in the daytime and we should not have to run night trips again until next June. So, for those of you who want a shot at a 10# + catfish and don’t want to fish at night, now would be the time to book a trip.
9. The flood has caused two of the ramps we use for Catfish Fishing to be closed so we are still working out the details of how we are going to handle our catfish trips but I think we have it all dialed in.
10. Remember, if you don’t want to have bass season closed for 2 months next year, you need to write your commissioners today as they will be voting on this tomorrow.
HAVE A GREAT WEEK AND LUV THE TUG………REB
