Pool 4 (Red Wing) Water Temp: 77 Level: 4.3 Flow:@20,900cfs

Conditions are very normal on the river for summer.

Trips this past week were much the same as before.  Fishing is still pretty good if you get in the right areas but can be tough in other stretches.  Pulling crawlers and leeches on 3-ways has been my go to during this very high water temp stretch.  Dragging light jigs downstream has been effective as well but generally smaller fish at least for my boat.  

As usual for this time of year it is important to try multiple presentations if you think you're on fish.  They do have a lot to choose from from here on as there is bait and various young of the year everywhere. 

Ace Koleznar, his mom Leslie and sister Promise are shown below with a few of the better fish from our two days on the water.
