hey everyone....It's been a while since I checked this forum out. Went out fishing last Sunday with my old man. We went down by Blackhawk, just south of the Genoa Lock and Dam. Man did we ever clean up on the bass! Using Rat-L-Traps and worms! Caught about 4 dozen Largemouth. I'm heading north to Fountain City this weekend for a small fishing trip. Can't wait. Anyone else noticing an abundance of minows in the water. The bass don't seem to be hitting top water right now. Just wondering if it's because of the abundance of minows?

I'm thinking about purchasing this baitcaster, but I was wondering first if anyone has one, or knows someone who uses one. If so, could you give me some honest opinions on it? Oh, and one more thing, has anyone had to deal with Pflueger's customer service? How is it?

did some more fishing again this morning, same place (around Goose Island area), caught 4 largemouth and a stripper on Rat-L-Trap. They are really getting frisky now!!!!!!!

Went around the Goose Island area today and caught 7 largemouth and 1 northern. All within 4 hours. Most were small, had a couple nice ones, but released them all. All were caught with spinners, fishing from the bank. Hey it's great to hear from some other Wisconsin folks.

Hey, it's nice to hear from a fellow Wisconsinite! From Madison area huh? I hear the water around that area is pretty high. You folks got alot of snow this year (as we all did). Glad this long winter is finally coming to an end.....except for the northern part of the state !!! Yeh, if you are ever planning a trip to the LaCrosse area shoot me a PM and I'll be glad to give you some tips/areas to try out. Retiring this month....man congrats! Wish I could say the same! I have a few years left to go (to say the least).

That's a bit of an under statement! I really don't know what you would call this winter, but at least it's April.

Hey fellow Wisconsinites. I am new to this forum, however have been bass fishing for 10+ years, mainly with top water and spinners. Just starting to get into the plastic scene! I want to catch some bigger bass! Just wondering what other Wisconsin folks are on here and where are ya all located and fish, now you don't have to give me your honey hole : just a general area! I'm from the LaCrosse, WI area and do mainly all of my bass fishing on the Mighty Miss. Mostly backwaters, been thinking of getting into some of the lakes around the area. But the bass love to hit topwater on the river. Hey think warm weather and even warmer nights. Need to get that water warmed up!
