River's Edge park fishing

Since the fishing on the rivers have been disappointing due to way too many gar these days, I decided to go to river's edge park to fish. I did get a flathead, but the lake was infested with gar as well. There were plenty of bluegill to use as bait in the lake but the gar basically took the bait every time I threw it in.

Failure fishing on the Missouri River -- Curse you gar!

Fished Boone bridge on the Missouri River today hoping to bag myself a mighty Blue Gatofish but alas, the Gar spoiled my plans. They took all my bluegills and creek chubs and I failed to get anything more than 2 small gar.

Catfishing Indianford

Spent some time at the big dam at Indianford lately. I was mainly fishing for catfish and ended up using cut drum and cut bluegill as bait. Didn't get the massive flatheads I was after but I did get a few big channel cats.

Wisconsin Dells Multispecies fishing

Spent 2 days in the dells. One at Lake Delton Spillway and the other on the Wisconsin river. Ended up catch 6 or 7 species and some really nice fish and learnt a lot about the fishery there at different places.

Lake Wisconsin Multispecies fishing

Fished at the Ferry on Lake Wisconsin again for 2 days. Caught a lot of smallmouth and white bass on Rapala lures. Got a big carp and a catfish as well and a unexpected yellow perch off a worm. Pretty fun 2 days but did not get that monster buffalo I was looking for.

Fishing Downtown Montello

Went to Montello yesterday to fish the young fox river. Its the same river that runs through lake Winnebago and empties out into Green Bay but just much sooner in its course. Caught a few Catfish, a drum, and lost a big bass but a fun day.

Big Walleye Caught at Prairie Du Sac Dam

Went to Prairie du Sac dam finally. I've been avoiding it all summer due to the fact that there are alot of snags and its usually crowded. But there are lots of baitfish in the water which draws big predators. Caught a big Walleye which was a PB.

Huge Fish caught in Madison

Decided to buckle down and fish finally around home in Madison, WI the last few days and it payed off! Caught a huge channel Catfish after dark that almost tipped the scales at 20lbs. Biggest channel I've ever caught.

Fishing Wisconsin Dells

Spent two days fishing around the Wisconsin dells dam. The two days were a few days apart due to heavy rain. When I went the 2nd day, there was heavy flooding and only a small patch of land was available. Didn't catch any giants but still caught some really good fish.

Fishing the Baraboo River

Went to fish the Baraboo river again the last few days. This time I focused on Giese Park and downtown Baraboo itself. There were a lot of snags in the area unfortunately and I lost several weights/hooks in downtown Baraboo. Still had a good harvest of catfish and Drum though.
