sightfisher Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Is that the Ford Dam your talking about or up in Coon Rapids? Fished on the bottom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny_redhorse Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 hey short!.just got back a couple hours ago from the st.louis!(forbes dam)(12:00 noon)......i never hit the red horse at all but the northerns were taking my crawlers! (caught 6 and released after a couple pics)....a few other guys had a couple white suckers(no red horse) plus more catch and release northerns.....i realy believe it's still early and the sucker runs will only get better as the water warms up....that water is cold! (leave your hands in it for a couple minutes.lol!)...here's a few pics of the northerns... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonny_redhorse Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Lol!....i certainly stand corrected! ...(great pics you have there!(even that walleye!)...2 younger guys next to me (closer to the dam) got 2 northerns.....then i started with the northerns myself...then 4 guys came about 11:00 and set up with a couple lawn chairs(tha grassy/sandy area down the river farther)..they caught 1 nice white sucker and 2 northerns...bewtween the 6 of us between 9:00 and 11:00.we caught 10 northerns and 1 sucker... go figure! ...i certainly should have stayed longer but had to get back to town ..i fished for 2 hours....i wish now i would have stayed for a few more hours....i'll probably be going back to the (Contact US Regarding This Word) this upcoming saturday or sunday...
