[QUOTE="Bri-guy, post: 91933, member: 1444"] Cold, wind, and snow. Two of the most brutal fishing-condition days I have ever endured in a boat. We fished Birchdale on Friday after receiving a tip that the bite was better up there. The wind chill was below zero, but the sun was shining and we got 3, including a 22" and a 26." Saw a few other boats landing fish. The strong winds made boat control very difficult -- there were actually white caps on the river. Saturday we fished closer to the mouth. One sturgeon and 0 walleyes. I never saw another boat land a fish. I guess the guys fishing the gap were catching some small ones, but it was literally bumper boats in that area. Although it was a little warmer, the conditions were actually worse with steady winds, clouds, and some snow. Water temps continued to fall while we were there. If they get the warmer weather forecast for Tuesday-Thursday, Thursday could be an awesome day out there. We just didn't hit it at the right time. [/QUOTE]
