I was thinking the same here. but I actually had a great year with the walleye on the river. Really surprsied me.
I figured the flooding was going to just destroy the fishing. Didn't get out there at teh begining because of it. But had a pretty good fall.
I'm hoping the same doesnt happen with flooding this year since we have all this snow and they have it north of us as well. So I can fish this spring. winter is getting long and ice fishing is not so great this year
Yes - I really think this site has potential. I am excited about this year - I found a honey hole on the Wapsi river and caught sizable northern, walleye and large mouth there. The weather keep fouling things up though. My friend has planned on taking me to a private pond where he caught 13 bass over 21" in one day!!!! Each week the weather has caused us to reschedule.
This weekend I hit Central Park (no luck), Backbone (you can always catch trout). Things were slow so I did some exploring -Upper wapsi Lime Springs and Lake Hendricks. Finally had found some ggod action at the lake - 4 15"+ bass and a nice perch.
I spent my weekend baitcasting and I managed to catch a bunch of trout with my new daiwa tatula sv tw baitcast reel. I went home and tried some trout recipes online. It was a weekend well spent.
