Where: Mississippi R. (Lake Pepin)

Today I was fishing the Mississippi River at Lake Pepin. The water has gone up significantly on account of all the rain and it is around 11' at this time. It is still fairly clear though. This was the second time I have fished this area and I really like it. I had planned to target mostly pike, but after half a day with limited success, except for the 38 incher, I switched to casting the rocks with crank baits for bass and eyes. The walleye fishing was quite good. I kept four under 20" and released four other legals including a 25 and a 23. I also caught drum, small mouth and a couple of white bass.
