‘A great opener’
Iowa’s pheasant opener was busy, with lots of hunter success.
Spinner, spinner, duck dinner?
How many spinning wing decoys should you have in your spread when hunting ducks?
Project expected to take 18 months to complete.
Walleyes, saugers, pike, jumbo perch and an occasional crappie or sturgeon all in the mix.
Don’t feel like you need to use one specific bait.
Walleyes are mainly being taken with minnows or horizontal baits such as Jiggin’ Raps on deep structure or shallower, shoreline areas – just depends on the lake.
“Historically, Coon has been a good bass lake during the summer and always a solid panfish and pike fishery in the winter.”
Key learning? Modern anglers must adapt to changing conditions… or find another hobby.
