Fox River DePere Voyager (all postings)

Found a spot on the rocks and took the fiance out while we watched the marathon. We ended up landing ohhhh, maybe 16 sheepshead between 10 and noon on Sunday. Love the fight.

Fished last night in the East vs. West fishing classic for our school and caught about 10 channel catfish 8 of them were nice sized ones between 8-12 pounds. Also caught a couple of sheep head on my catfish set up lol lots of fun

30" 19lbs on a blue&chrome rattle trap.It was a fish almost every cast fishing between papermill and power lines I do it every year at least once.Toothy

Toothycritter, nice goat. Looks bloated or blown up, one of the two.

As far as your catch of 80 fish in 4 hours. A fish every 3 minutes?

Went up yesterday to fish the walkway by the dam. Too rainy so we moved on to a different spot. Our main target was actually some large carp. We got confused by all the signs. The fish refuge should be open now if I understand correctly, but the land south of the pier is closed to fishing. as is the island itself. Does anyone know if its legal to wade upstream closer to the dam? the water was shallow enough and not moving much next to shore and easily wadeable the issue is trespassing? If you are in the water it should be legal according to state law. Just curious if anyone has any insight on this. We spotted some monster fish we want to target via flyrod in a few weeks, and just want to avoid any inconvenience.

I highlighted the area I was talking about in orange and drew an arrow.

That is one of the bigger goats that I have seen caught on the river.

Fished Wednesday 4-8pm caught about 80 sheephead and whitebass most were large.

Was out from 7pm to 9pm and caught 3 white bass and about 8 drum. Water temp was 57 degrees. Lost a lure to something that snapped the line, might've been a catfish or sturgeon...ran upstream then sat on the bottom a while before it took the lure.

Someone asked me if I was actually catching white perch rather than white bass. I did the research and looked at the photos and videos I made and confirmed I am catching white bass, not white perch, thankfully.

What is the current water temp? THank you

Anybody been catching anything off shore in the park?

Fished down by the channel at Voyager park for about an hour.....caught 2 catfish about 20 inches and 1 sheapshead.

I found a pair of forceps in the water and i know i talked to a guy and he said that he lost the exact pair if you are him send me a pm and i will send them to you.

hey bassstream, what were you using for white bass?

Fished from 6:30 to 8:30 last night. Got into the white bass a little bit and caught about 10 monster drum. Both are pre-spawn and very aggressive biting. Nothing like after a long spring of skimpy walleye to get into some hard biting/fighting white bass and drum. Also fought with a good sized sturgeon for about 5 mins but it rolled it's way off.

Sturgeon are in, and everywhere up by the dam. USFWS were there also sampling some fish. I watched them install a tracking device in a sturgeons stomach, and then sew it back up. That one weighed around 105 lbs. Had a sturgeon hanging out by us while fishing for walleyes. That one was right at 6 ft long.
