Fished the east side of the highway yesterday, walking on from the north side. There are some areas of thin ice along the shore about 5 ft wide, I'd guess the ice was an inch thick in places along the shore, but plenty of other places to get on the bay away from the thin stuff. There is about 6-8 inches of good clear ice away from the shore. The east bay is frozen over, however the ice in the middle portion, from the 1804 bridge down the center of the bay going east, does still have a darker color to it. There were a few other groups out, talked to some younger kids who had caught a couple of northerns. We caught 3 small walleyes, one keeper and a few northerns. Not a bad first outing.

Fished the Missou south of Mandan Tuesday afternoon til dark and fishing was good. Went about 15 miles south of mandan. Wihtin minutes of dropping the jig down nice 18 incher. ANd it was non stop from there on, alot of small eyes, a few fair sized slimers, and some massive perch. When all was said and done took home our 10 eyes, biggest 22 a 20 the rest in the 17-18 range. Also kept 2 perch both at 14 inches and FAT. We did have to pick through 40-50 small fish but it was still fun. Most fish came in the 20-30 ft of water, anything less seemed to produce slimers. jigs of any color with minnow was ticket . It was a perfect day. November fishing is the best. SHoot at this rate I may have the boat out in december, we'll see. good luck all

Another great day on the river. We fished out of Hazelton and did well. November fishing is the best. Lots of action and nice sized fish. We were jigging but many were running raps. Looks like tomorrow may be the last day for me.

We hit the tailrace Friday night. My first time fishing the shutes from a boat, what a rush! We fished from 11PM to 3:30 AM and caught some kind of fish on every pass. Came in with a couple big cats, a nice brown and 10 big fat footballs. My lord I have never seen fish so fat. OUTSTANDING!!

Went fishing south of Bismarck near the desert on Saturday the 8th. Used jigs, floaters and plain hooks with most action coming from plain hooks and minnows. Caught some walleye with the biggest weighing in at 4 pounds on the nose also lost a couple and missed a few with some pretty nice teeth marks in the minnows. Tried crawlers as well but nothing caught with those. Also caught a cat and a sucker.
