This has always been the biggest wisconsin mystery for me, when i was little. i saw at a mendota boatlaunch a species list that had gar listed on it. This video is the only thing ive seen on the internet that proves they exist in mendota/monona
My dad grew up in the area and used to fish tenny park from shore as a kid and he said back then you’d see them daily, I wonder if they’re not as common nowadays? Im surprised more people haven’t had a run in with them
I’m inbetween, I want my limit but at the same time I wouldn’t be opposed to being on bigger fish all day and releasing them. That stretch we were on has been producing eaters pretty consistently now
Is that trolling or what are you doing? A lot of people complain about a lot of small walleyes on Lake Winnebago but similar to what you said, I almost exclusively cast crankbaits in shallow water at or after dark and most are 20 inches or larger. I live on the lake though so I can slip out there for the 'magic hour' just about every evening weather permitting.
Was this filmed this year or was it last summer? I went out there for the first time last summer with a guide and we caught more sheeps head than walleye trolling crawler rigs.
@robnrapoutdoors only reason I asked is I see you wearing shorts and t-shirts. I didn't realize it was that warm up there yet. Great video New subscriber
@@robnrapoutdoors your content is right in my wheelhouse. Unfortunately I currently live south of the cheddar curtain but Wisconsin is my favorite state
I would definitely recommend fishing De Pere and Oconto from shore. Your best chances are definitely to go either early morning or evening as the sun starts to set
Tons of little ones this year. Best day was 60 fish bit most under 14inc. When casting did u drag it back to boat or did pop it keep tip high and let swing back to bottom I only vertical jig.
Our size limit in Ohio is 15 inch and limit of 6 fish. On lakes and most streams. Looks like you guys are always having great days there. Tight lines to you guys.
@@robnrapoutdoors I live 10mins from there every one is steelhead fishing now out of the 10 years I been fishing this stretch I’ve only seen one walleye caught out of there lol
For sure! And I’m sure the bigger ones have yet to push up since it’s early. Hopefully within a week or 2 those nicer slot fish start making an appearance
Would you assume that the spawn will occur a few weeks earlier than usual? I have always gone out in Late March and early April. What are your thoughts?
With all this warm weather we’ve been getting and still projected to be getting, I’m thinking it’ll start within the next week or two, especially if the water temperature keeps rising the way it has been
The bite is going to keep getting better as we warm up here. Oconto is way more fun than DePere. Keep slinging that hair jig, and you'll stick a dirty 30!
