Sauger - they don't exist. The unicorn of the fishing world.

My dad always had stories of "wearin' 'em out." We went a few times when I was a kid, but never caught any. But, due to the cold, not wanting to be out in a kayak, and, I guess, some misguided sense if nostalgia, I showed up at the dam at daylight to wear 'em out. Fished 6 1/2 hours. Nothing. I had three bites - all drum. Fished off the bank with jigs tipped with minnows.

Good luck if you try them. I'd heard a few were being caught, and saw Richard Gene get a few, but I've still only caught a couple while bass fishing.
