Shoot sauger fishing will go on until late march or mid April. Also the water keeps them screwed up .That and 2 big shad kills.
Bad thing not hearing of anyone catching any small fish this year. That tells me we lost a spawn. And if that happed were looking at a few bad years ahead.
I am with cole, if we can get by without the temps falling down into the teens again. We should see them pick way up next week.
Also this works for me, while everyone else is fishing deep. I catch them shallow. AS in less then 12ft deep.
