I apologize for missing a report last week. It was very busy and just slipped past me. Much has changed. There was big storms the end of last week causing the river to go up but not all that much. It did change the bite from fast water in the middle to OFF current breaks along the edges. The best spots have been flats that drop into a hole where the current is pushing away. The river appears to have crested from Fargo to Grand Forks and will crest the north stretches in the next few days.
Bait is back to suckers but I have heard from some tournament anglers prefishing at Drayton that frogs are starting to really turn on. The frogs I have seen are still pretty small. They are still somewhat hard to come by.
Sit times are still in that 20-25 minutes but it seems that 15 minutes is the magic number.
The Red is setting up for some amazing September fishing. I have many dates available to take advantage of this.
