Caught a few walleye on jigs with live minnows. Walleye still pretty passive. Fishing the Wisconsin River above Petenwell. Launche the boat from Nekoosa.

Slow rolling the smaller swimmer along current seams was key for nice pike. Weighting the swimmer with 1/4 oz of more was also important to keep the bait down in the water column. Less current the better or even retrieve the bait with the current rather than against it. Take a kid fishing!
