Skis Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Thinking of heading out there this weekend. Last I heard the water level was getting really low!! Don't want to head out there if I'm going to beach the boat!Anyone been out recently that can report on the water (primarily from Chamberlain to Crow Creek area).

Mike Walerak Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 I can't speak for Chamberlain but I know Shapre has been doing well. My buddy was just there fishing from shore after dark and did very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skis Posted November 7, 2005 Author Share Posted November 7, 2005 Here's my report: Got to Allen's Hillside to pick up minnows and saw a picture of an 8 pounder that was caught there the day before. They didn't have much for a report, as they were hunting.So we ventured out and hit the dredgehole. Picked up two 17" walleyes in about 2 hours of fishing. We were pulling spinners with minnows with my trolling motor set at about 4.Because the fishing was relatively slow, decided to move and work the area from the old bridge pillars to the bridge. Picked up a 16.5" there, but it was slower there and I was marking less fish, so we finished the day down by the grade again.Ended up with 4 keepers with 4 guys. If I was going to go back, I think I would slow down more and go to jigs. However, the water temp was still 51, so it's ??But the weather was awesome!
