    Default Report: Northwest River 22 Feb 2020


    I fished for five hours on Saturday, February 22, and the water temperature had dropped to 43*. When I went two weeks ago, it was 53*.




    The white perch were thick and aggressive, and I had to get away from them to catch some crappie.




    I started using both hair-jigs and plastic-tube jigs lately, and I pair them with small minnows. I found crappie in about 8 feet of water, and white perch when I drifted in to 6 feet of water. I also threw back four small green carp.




    Of course, I took home a bunch for the table: 10 crappie, 14 white perch and 1 sorta-ugly fish:




    Good luck!

    Thanks, Jim. We miss you, too! The Northwest seems empty without you. Stay healthy--hope to be seeing you for another trip one day!
