Mississippi River Pool 8 - LaCrosse

Every year from the boatlanding to messenger-bob How Do you Fish All Winter in the Boat? Here's how I keep the motor from freezing up and fish all winter in the boat

Took a drive up Fishermans Rd. this afternoon.  Some a-hole dumped 3 small piles of asphalt across the access at the very end.  They are close enough together to make getting a sled through difficult and small enough that they could get buried under a decent snowfall.  Not sure if that is the responsibility of the Airport, the city, or county.  It could probably be remedied easy enough with a sledgehammer but I do not own one.  Watch where you're walking once the ice gets here.  

Well with these temperatures lately it may not seem like it,  but ice IS coming!! We're filling up rather quickly this season, but we do still have some openings! If you're looking to get out on the river this winter for the airboat experience, shoot me a text or give me a call to get you spot nailed down. Looking forward to seeing all of you on the hardwater SOON! 

I'm heading to pool 8 next week. Just wondering on fishing and conditions, any help would be appreciated.

Started at the dam at 8am. Caught a 17" walleye and nothing for an hour. Then three smalls and a carp. At 10am weeds came through so bad we couldn't get our bait back without fouled with weeds. Tried other spots. Nogo. Water is still a little warm.

I want to start off by thanking all of you that fished with me this year.. I'm incredibly blessed to do what I do, and have the client base that I do.  I'll never take that for granted, you're all incredibly appreciated! November 1st will be my last open water trip of the season.  After 150+ open water trips, I need time to reset and get ready for ice. If you're interested in getting out on the airboat this winter, please get ahold of me! Have had a TON of calls lately and dates are filling in. Bite remains strong for perch crappies gills and eyes- more catching than fishing right now.  Looking forward to another great ice season with all of you!!Tight lines- Captain Adam Christianson 

Had a great time fishing with Adrenaline Guide service this past Wednesday.  Went with my buddy and uncle that came up from Texas.  Adam kept us on fish all day!  We were catch most of the time.  These fish were moving the entire time but Adam would keep with them with his 360 imaging. We ended up with a big pile of big crappies, perch and gills!  Huge shout out to Adam and his right hand man Drew for a great time!

Hit the deeper wing dams this morning. We ended up with about 20 fish. Some small but kept enough for a two man limit. Minnows. 20 + fow. 

Hit pool 8 this morning. Tried deeper wing dams using minnows. Got 12 eyes and sauger. Kept 7. Kinda windy. Bite was fast then it quit. Had to be patient. Fishing float looked dead. Took a ride to the dam and not much going yet.

October is here, and bringing in a big cold front with it, FINALLY! Fishing has been great,  perch are on the weed edges staging up,  crappies are in deep holes, gills are pretty much everywhere.  As we inch closer to ice season,  my schedule is filling in for some prime time early and late ice jumbos. If you're interested in setting up a trip this fall still for open water,or ice, please get ahold of me asap to do so! I'm looking forward to a great season! Thank you to each and every one of my clients so far this year that has came up and shared the boat with me,  I truly appreciate you all!
