FISHING REPORT
July 5, 2010
Wow! It has been a busy month. We have been catching some wonderful fish throughout the river.
I took out some boys from Kansas and had a great time!
There is nothing more exciting than having two smallies hooked at the same time. The walleye and the small mouth bass are still biting at West Bend. They had a great trip catching fish and enjoying the great weather.
These pictures say it all, check out the walleye!
To finish off a full weekend of bass and walleye fishing, a few hours on Lake Oahe was all Barb needed to reel in this beautiful 10-lb chinook salmon.
Hope to see you on the lake soon!

We had a group of wonderful people fishing Memorial weekend! The walleye and small mouth bass were biting fast and furious at West Bend.
Because of the slot limit on Lake Sharpe, we had to throw back a lot of 17 to 17 1/2-inch small mouth bass but they were still great fun to catch!
We still managed to find some nice keepers and had time to go up to Lake Oahe and troll for some salmon.
The salmon are biting much deeper than usual for this time of the year so be sure to drop the lures to where the fish finder is marking them.
We had a full weekend of fun and fishing and the boys took home a cooler full of walleye, bass and salmon!

Spring is here and the fish are biting! 
This is a 21.6 pound, 38 inch Northern Pike that Jim from Iowa caught last Friday. We were fishing in the back bay of Spring Creek using bobbers and frozen smelt.
We caught our limit of Walleye at West Bend the next day using minnows and pulling plugs. All around, it was a great trip for Jim and his wife; they are already planning a return trip for later this summer.
The fishing will only get better as the water warms up. Hope to see you out on the water soon!

Spring is coming (eventually) and Pierre, SD is starting to warm up. In fact, there was a couple of boats under the bridges today, jigging for walleye in the current.
The ice is still thick on Lake Oahe and they are fishing and spearing for Northern and Walleye. They are catching fish through the ice down at Joe's Creek on Lake Sharpe, too.
Another few weeks (or so) and ice will start going out and the Northern will be hungry. The shallow waters in back of the bays will be the place to go.
The calls are starting to come in as people are planning their summer vacations. Reserve your date soon, I am eager to hear from you!
