Red Wing Fishing

[huntingislife]

Well, I heard about everybody catching fish by red wing so we decided to give it a try on Sunday. We tried every spot on our Hot Spots map since we had never been there before. We used minnows w/jigs and w/ringworms and jigs. All colors too. We ended up catching only one sheepshead. We didn't see anybody else catching anything and everybody seemed to be moving around. Was it slow for everybody on Sunday or were we just doing something wrong? Maybe drift speed was our problem. We just got an old school trolling motor that wasn't like what we were used to and it was hard to control. But anyways, does anybody have any tips on what we can do next time we head down there so that we can hopefully catch some fish. Thanks

The past 2 weeks have been pretty hit or miss, the rise in water 7-10 days ago got fish scatterd and tough to find, plus all the high water stirred up alot of muck and made visabilty limited. Best shot is to pitch shoreline with light jigs + plastics slooowly. Some fish you can pick-up on the sand flats near inside bends. March was a decent month for 'eyes & sauger, until the high water hit. Tournament fishing lately @ red wing hasn't been great.

I would imagine once spring run-off is done more normal conditions should help. And let's not forget to return those big pigs back for more fun in the future.

Good luck

huntingislife,

Had to laugh but your post looks like a copy of mine down below. I never seem to hit the RW dam at the right time. Oh well, gotta keep trying
