Ford Dam eels and flatheads??


Decanno1

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if the Ford Dam contains eels at all?? I know that it has mooneye and I have heard that it has sizable flatheads.... although I haven’t seen pictures so I’m a bit skeptical... Was just curious because I’ve heard rumors that American eels are amazing for flatheads!!! If anyone could give me some tips on how to locate any over there I would really appreciate it!!! (Help with mooneye is greatly appreciated too!)

To my knowledge, American eels are becoming increasingly more scarce in Minnesota. They're nocturnal hunters that like slow moving water with mud bottom and go after a lot of the same baits as catfish, resulting in most of them being caught by people seeking cats. South of the falls will be your best bet from what I've heard. Fair warning if you do manage to catch one: bring paper towels and gloves. They're slimy little devils!

 

Good luck! ?
