Fishing on the Wisconsin River at Mazomanie boat landing south of Sauk City. Throwing an underspin into the channel and retrieving. Got a bite over a deeper hole on the flashy swimmer. Still snow on the ground and ice on the edges of the river.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueWacky RigsSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureDocksFinished 2nd out of 15 boats last weekend. The fish were pre spawn and feeding heavily with 70 degree warming conditions. It was a sunny morning with little wind. We fished around docks in shallow warm water areas with wacky rigs to generate a lot of bites. A couple fish were caught flipping a finesse jig around rock. The wind picked up in the afternoon. This allowed for a swim jig bite to get going and generate a couple key bites.

Managed to get a reaction bite with deflecting a squarebill in lay downs. Also caught a nice smallmouth around a nothing bank in Wiggins bay with green pumpkin jackhammer.

I was fishing the Wisconsin Dells dam and setting minnows out for walleyes. I managed to catch 5 walleyes doing that and I would recommend to get some leeches!
