st. croix?

[bgreen82]

does anyone here fish the croix for cats. i know the majority of what i read is people fishing the sippi and the MN. i'd like to get out and try st. croix. i've read in a fishing guide that the best places to try are the hudson bridge and stillwater areas. anyone agree?

I've had luck for channel cats near Hudson. Lots of shad = fat fish!!! There's a lot of water to cover, but the fish are worth it.

Below tailors falls dam!We caught BIG steurgon,cats.That was 35 years ago,but their probably yet there.All our fishing was from shore.

The state flathead record is from the St. Croix.

i knew about the record but i think that was in 1970. obviously theres gonna be cats in there, i was just wondering if it was as good as the others. i'll be giving it a try either way.

Brian,

I also want to fish the St. Croix for Cats this year.

They are in there, but probably not as many Flatheads at the Miss & Mn rivers... I've caught alot of small channel cats in the lake part on a bar last year, but really want to tie into some good sized ones.

There are several areas to find them. Some of the narrows, current breaks, eddy's, etc.

Let's get some Chicken Liver, Crawlers & go!!

i dont generally get out as often as i'd like to, but if we ever have a similar time available, i'd love to. mostly i get out one weekend day or night a week, at least thats what i try to do. this summer i may try getting out in the boat more after work at 7.

Hey Brian,

Yep, a weekend day or night would work great. We'll have to meet up on the water sometime in the next few weeks and see if we can tie into some...
