Report and question!

[Jim W]

Opening day in SE MN was reported as good to slow, by trout anglers!

Streams like, the South Branch of the Root River, and the South Branch of Whitewater river, flowed very nicely, with moderate to minimal cloudiness.

Sarge and Myself fished nondesiganted waters. Water that probably pushed the "fishable" envelope, managing only a couple fish. However, we found ourselves on a small feeder that was gin clear, immediately catching!

Water temp was 52 in the first stream and considerably colder(no reading sorry) in the clear feeder.

Thunderstorms predicted for Tuesday. This could have both adverse and positive effects on conditions of the streams and rivers in SE MN, pending on amount of rain received and just exactly where it falls.

I recommend keeping tabs on several different streams and rivers while your out, allowing for a choice if inundation occurs.
Reason being, stream A could get flooded out, but Stream C only 15-20 minutes away, flows like the sky above!!!

NOW TO MY QUESTION!!!!

ANy of you Duluth area trout fisherman care to trade a day on a stream up yonder for a day down here???? Let me know!!!

Keep the rods bendin'!!!

Jim W, I've got a proposition for you. I know of a stream you probably havn't fished that is a nondesignated trout stream. It's not in duluth, it's in SE minnesota and recieves very little fishing pressure. There have been reports (from a very reliable source) of some very nice trout coming out of there. I would be willing to do some sort of trade if your interested. If your interested email me.

Jim W., I just thought of another stream you might be interested in. It's Gilbert creek in wabash county. Yes, I know you have probably fished it before, but not the section I'm thinking of it's on some private land and I just happen to know the owners, well sort of, I went to school with their kids and they would probably let me fish it. Anyhow about seven years ago one of their kids cuaght a brown out of there that was about 2lbs. or better. I am willing to bet you that there are more where that one came from. Well it's just a thought. Let me know what you think.
