Tyme's sauger report from McAlpine

[Tyme2fish]

Nothing to report. Sorry, we didn't catch anything. The bait shop was closed so Knute didn't get any minnows. We tried 5" white curly tailed grubs on 1/4 oz to 3/8 oz lead head jigs. Zippo, nada,zilch.

We were in the duck pond first, tried the deep holes off the Clarksville ramp, and in front of the bearclaws with equal non-success.

However, I did save a life today. I think Knute was getting ready to kill his wife if he didn't get out of the house for a few hours.

Surface water temp was 52° Lower water level 18.2' Upper release 37' lower release 4' . That was too much release from the upper for us to try across from the museum.

We did scare a big head carp out of the water while we were putting around the duck pond!!

No stories to relate about boat or motor malfunctions. All was good in that department.

I am going tomorrow if the rain stops
