Wolf River - Fremont

Hit the Wolf River on April 18 to try to cash in on the walleye run.  Things were pretty slow... much slower than expected.  The late spring had the water at 43 degrees and many of the fish were just starting to come out of the marshes.

The fish pictured here had frogs in their bellies so they had clearly just reentered the main river.

Both of these fish were caught on yellow 3/8 oz jigs in 8 feet of water near the rock wall.

The larger of the two came on a lake shiner, while the other was caught on a desperation combination of nightcrawler and lake shiner.

We caught two small whitebass later in the day, but otherwise this was it for the day.
