Anyone have a fishing report ?
I haven't heard of anyone catching much of anything in the last month or so . The last 3 times i went i didn't catch anything . Just went deer hunting and will till the end of january . Sorry no help . Go find some and let us know . Good luck
GDG and I were just talking about the Rez, we got some time off now and are trying to decide when and where to go. The extended forecast looks good, gonna be cold but stable weather for the next few days.
I have some time off also. I am trying to decide between the Rez, eagle lake or Chotard
If you find them on the rez please tell. I have been 3 times in the last month and caught only 1 fish. I have resorted to deer hunting as well. I'm ready for the spawn, i know where to find them then. I suck at fall/winter fishing.
Headed to Eagle/Chotard
I caught a few a week or so ago. No real good ones, just keepers is all.
Next big rain we get and put some current in the river channel should put them in the old lake beds off of the river channel pretty thick I would guess. I am chompin at the bits to get down there and try them and I see a trip in the very near future lol.
On the Rez, what are the names of the old lake beds? I have lived in Madison for 2 years now and am doing my best to learn the rez. Only lake I have found is Long Lake. When the current gets swift will the fish come there or do the stick close to the river like at the welfare hole and back toward sade harbor.Quote:

I've always heard of places like 3 Prong and Oil Well Woods but dont know where they are.
Macpappy, get one of those lake maps from Walmart. They have a few on there. Clear lake is a good place at times. Old number 7 is a good place too. If you have time, you can run by the PRV main office up near Cock of the Walk and get one of their maps. They have a great one
Ditto on the maps, it's tough to figure out without one. I almost went down this morning to give it a try but did not sleep well last night. Is anyone fishing the welfare hole now?
Drove through there about 8 this morning and 4 this afternoon. Nobody was there either time. Big north wind this afternoon.
I can only guess why you call it the welfare hole. :Rofl
My brother has been wearing them out UP River. Caught almost a limit yesterday
I heard that also about up river . That they are catching a few . North northwest wind if there is much can't fish welfare hole . I ask about the name when i was still going with someone else . He said it was cause you could always catch a mess of fish . I do know that is not true . I am getting ready to go myself . Painted about a hundred jigs last night ready to go . Snow is coming gdown reckon the fish will bite ??
Here's what I read about the name. a place that everybody could fish and catch enough crappie for supper
That is basicly what i was told .
I couldn't tell ya why the named it that but I can tell ya this, it is one of the most productive places on the Rez at times.
I went by the PRV today and the lady said they are out of maps and did not know when they would get anymore. I will update when she calls me back.Quote:
