A group of us goes to pool 4 the end of March every year. Lots of people and lots of fish. A really fun time.

I fish and guide on the Mississippi in the Twin Cities Metro, mostly in March. Simply the hugest (girthiest) walleyes anywhere in Minnesota (from there south) IMO. I have fished the Rainy for many years. Mississippi eyes get way bigger...mostly having to do with girth.

I just plain love fishing rivers. Not much I'd rather do in the spring than work the current with a jig.

Combo trip turkey hunting and fishing after your turkey is dead is just about perfect.

I once fished below Dresback down by Lacrosse/Lacrescent, and caught 16 species of fish in one day. It's another thing I like about the river. Incredible diversity. You never know what you're going to get.

And, it's open year around! Defeats having to wait till ice-out. My scouts are out...won't be long now.
