    Relatively slow bite for the Wisconsin Opener (although the St. Croix opened up one week earlier). Water temperatures were 50-55 degrees and warming fast with the light switch of a cold La Nina spring and summer seeming to flip overnight. As such, the bite will likely change day by day, so what I say here now, will likely be different tomorrow. Still, although fishing was slow, we picked up a couple nice fish along a current seam in a channel just north of the I94 bridge in Hudson. Pink glitter 1/4 oz jig with a fathead minnow was the ticket.

    Walleye fishing has been a bit slow in the area between the Stillwater lift bridge and Hudson Bridge the first two weeks of the season. Still, some keeper sized Walleye have been hitting in 12-15 fow along dropoffs on 2 3/4 Flicker Shad crank baits on long line trolling rods with a thin braid (15 lb). Trolling has been outfishing any other live bait technique.
