White River

[walleyefisher0990]

I have a cabin up on the white and fish it alot. I usually catch alot of browns but there isnt much size to them. And every once in a while i get into a nice pike. Anybody here ever fish the white. Have any luck?

Thanks

I have fished it a few times with out much luck.. as I am not much of a stream fisherman per say... but I know quite a few people who do fish the river and have decent luck on browns... From my take, I guess a lot of night fishing is done on the White and bigger and better fish are caught during the night time period... But thats about all I know and that it is a beautiful river.....

I fish the White quite a bit, lots of browns 8-12 but not much larger, at least that I catch. Have caught some nice brookies also. I hope that you are not releasing the pike, the DNR really wants them out of the river.

No we dont realease the pike my grandpa likes to pickle them so we give them all to him. They eat the little trout dont they? we do realease all the trout that we catch though.

The White River is known to MN/WI trout fishers for one area: the Bibbon Swamp. This area holds some large browns, although many say it's best fished at night with a canoe. They also say that most trout fishermen try this technique just once!

I grew up right around there and I'll tell ya, I hammered the brown's growin up....had to sort through the suckers now n then but never a dull moment. I gotta get back to those secret hole's.............
