So, I got up at 4:30 and drove the 4 blocks to get to the Mississippi River. Caught 3 nice walleyes from 15-19" and was home and had them cleaned before the garbage man showed up at 6 a.m. It sure is peaceful fishing while the rest of the city sleeps!

The Mississippi has Walleye? I would have lost that bet.

my hero,you'd have to take the lugnuts off the truck and use em for sinkers to get the bait in front of a walleye here and he better be quick.just means better fishin later i guess.

the north end certainly does probably less south of lock and dam 12 but up around lock and dam 4 it is great walleye fishing

my little river"Oswayo" dumps into it somewhere.imagine mostly northern section along with feeders have lots.

Lots of everything from southern Iowa on up. Terrific crappies, bass, musky, walleye etc. but don't tell anyone.

I caught 3 or 4 smallmouth too, but I wasn't trying to catch those.

Fished it a few times with Rally.Of course you can cast across the entire river up there.LOL
Few people to bother you and wide variety of fish.

As far south as St. Louis anyway, Lock 27.

And here they are as the beginning of fish tacos!

Nice!
Love Walleye fishing in the river here.

PCR, i'd have lost a bet on which side the divide Potter was on. Always guessed water went to the Susky but see Potter is half-n-half. Learn sumptin everyday.

Oswayo-Alleghany-mississippi i believe.

Yep.

Our local creeks are brown and high. Lots of rain in the last few days......JK

The city of the Cloud never sleeps! Your hobbie fishing at 4:30 a.m. is
merely a secret window for sportsman activity.

Judging by your fry pan, looks like you were hungry keeping those 13 inchers! Lol

The city I live in, in Elk county sits right on the divide. My pee at home goes to the Mississippi. Go to my friends house 1/4 mile away his goes to the Susqy.
