Pine River .... Trout

Well it's been an exciting spring so far. Trout fishing on little known rivers and creeks.The Pine River is a smallriver system. I have only fished it from Wild Rose, Wisconsin down to Poysippi. As of late I have been catching some pretty nice fish. Some of the areas are brush covered, so the use of a fly rod are hard. In this area I use my trusted spinning rod and real.
As for baits, Using a 1/32 size jig head with a 2" tube works wonders. The color varies on the day. I bring a few different ones with me. Yellow, blue and red have been great colors. Flipping the jig out there using a short twiching motion is usally the trick. Lately I've been cating browns. They have been avg. 12 to 19 inches and for this small river system, thats pretty dam good. Early mornings and late afternoons have been the best.

On the larger Rivers such as the Fox and wolf Rivers though you can still pick up some Walleyes the White bass are hitting good. With the warming waters Catfish will be running. They can be some big ones.
So until we meet again,
Happy fishing and be safe.

God Bless.
