Thanks for asking about me. I have been very active below WB dam since early August, but I don’t report on here unless it is a crappie trip. Perhaps I should because we have been having great catches of Walleye, Stripers, Smallmouth bass, and White bass. I have been hoping that the Striper guides would stay away for a while. A couple are showing up and people up there are catching lots of catfish.

We typically arrive at daylight and run up to the dam and drift in the current and fish seams. My last trip, I caught two Walleyes on the first drift and really couldn’t see my line. We got onto a Foley spoon bite and that is the only lure I have thrown in 6 weeks. Other lures have not been productive for other anglers. We might see one boat catch a fish and an hour later we see them catch another one. We have caught as many as 13 fish on our first three drifts using the Foleys.

Water temps have been in the high 70’s and when it finally drops to around 60 degrees, the fish will get back on a jig bite and may leave the Foleys alone. October is usually my best month to crappie fish and I have been thinking about getting back after the crappie. I just love to fish for them, but prefer White bass to eat and Walleyes aren’t bad either. Lolol. I usually give crappie away to family and friends.
