Being I had a couple free hours till my fishing partner gets off work, I headed to the river for a bit. Brought my cat rod and a dozen sucker minnows that I had in the freezer.  The first spot I tried was a small hole with a bunch of down wood. I have this spot 20 min with nothing to show. Second spot was a current break on a shallow flat off the main channel. This spot has produced well for me in past times of high water, today was no exception:)  Within 2hrs I was out of bait, cut most of my minnows in 2-3 pieces.  I figured it was taking longer to fight the fish, re bait and re cast than it was to actually get a bite:)   Going back for round two tonight with Andrea;)

Got back out again today. Headed South toward the Clearwater lakes area.  Started my initial search in a basin flat, bottoming out around 30 ft deep. Didn't take long to start marking fish... but thes

My weekend report: Friday I was fortunate to fish a private body of water in southern MN with serious big fish potential including a bunch of 15-16" crappies.  I had a blast catching a bunch of c

Would love to say we killed them, but can't lie.  It was a little different this evening, fishing was much slower than it had been earlier in the day.  Fish were caught , just none by me:)...lol. I figure if Andrea hadn't come with this evenig it would have been skunk city.  As luck would have it, or I should say Andrea's luck got us a few:)  Even though fishing was slower than I would have liked, seeing her fight a nice sized cat was reward enough... I was happy to see my beautiful girlfriend smile:)

Good job Rick and Andrea.  Rick even when the fishings tough shareing the water with someone you care about always makes the trip regardless of the catch. :)

Went to a small lake near st. Cloud today. And even with this heat, the fish were still pretty aggressive!  This guy was the biggest of the few I caught. Screenshot_2015-06-09-15-27-56.thumb.png

Had modest catch of random crappies yesterday.  Oddly, a few big post spawn females in very shallow water????  Gonna try to catch a few eyes this weekend.  Any general information?  Depth or structure to look for???  I have the lake in mind, so no hotspots needed!

Hit a small area lake today. Starting to find a few of the post spawn bulls roaming the deep weed edge with all the females and small gills.  Water temp was 76 on this lake, weed beds are starting to get thick in places. Finding fish was as easy as finding a thick weed edge close to a deep break.  Used small curly tailed grubs as a search bait to pin down just the right spot once we found the area we were going to hit.  Once fish were located, we switched over to panfish leeches on  1/32 oz jigs under a float. I find at this time of year nothing tempts big gills like a tiny leech ;)Also got a few crappies mixxed in with the gills.

Went to try out Beaver Lake and it treated us nicely. Went with the wife and pops past Saturday. Pops got that the bass which was right around 22in and 6lbs. and the wife had both northern. First was around 26in and second was about 24in. Sadly for myself nothing but handful of sunfish...still a good trip.

 

Excuse the poor photos...these the better of the few taken.
