[QUOTE="dean nelson, post: 79408, member: 1305"] Birds should be crossing into SD probably by wed. The real question is will they hold at Yankton and wait for the ice to melt to the north or start slipping north west up the river? I used to spend two to three months chasing them from KS and MO up to the line but like others have said its getting to be to much work or maybe I just no longer feel like putting in the work required so I tend to spend my time on the river fishing these days. This spring is going to suck bad for decoying anyway so big oahe pike are probably what I will be after. Although I am tempted if we can see a big migration day coming of setting up a few hundred full bodies and floaters on a sandbar up north and see if we can get them to play. Nothing else a guy could pitch jigs and cranks if the snows won't play. The snows we see over the river tend to be from a different group then the ones out to the east and they had much better success in breading so it might be worth a try but we will have to see what our ambition level is come that day.
