Missouri River (ND Lower Portion) - Thursday, August 25, 2011

Report Details
fished my little honey hole north of Bismarck from shore again last night...its where flood waters are flowing across flooded lowlands back into the river ...the entire food chain loves that! the fish are stout (fat!)and aggressive. we caught 11 from shore casting salmo hornet and shad raps, kept 7 from 14 to 21 inches, threw back the fat little 13 inchers, and lost several that attacked the lure as it was coming out of the water. Fishing has been best with cloud cover, low light or wind chop so that they are brave enough to come out of the deep hole up into the flooded shallows (3' to 5' deep) right by the now-submerged shoreline. When the water goes down the hot spot will probably fade away...but the fish are very healthy and will be somewhere waiting to be caught! water is stained, maybe a foot visibility...firetiger was the preferred color last night. blue was the winner the night before...and the 8" northerns are VERY agressive...lol!
