usually hard to catch fish in the middle of the winter. maybe catch a few with bait sitting on the bottom. the fish are lethargic in cold water. if you have suckers there put half a night crawler with #4 hook sitting on the bottom. usually starts about march 20 in southern michigan. so iowa should be about the same time. good luck with your fishing.
Thanks! I've sort of been hoping for a big buffalo to show up, but I haven't seen one all winter, surprisingly. Glad to be catching fish in February though!
That spot at that time of the year youll catch a lot of big carp there. It's a spot i take my daughter to late fall early spring. There's a few more good spots up river also. Ever need any insight for this section just give me a hauler sir be glad to help point you in some directions.
They actually really are pretty cool! Yeah I've only caught them while fishing for other species, but they do go after small fish as well as being good at getting in the way. I appreciate you watching and commenting!

Nice video. Carp and Buffalo seems what I’ve been ending up with. Nice smallie.

Nice to get rewarded with a good one after sticking it out for awhile!
Yeah I was beginning to lose hope but was fortunate to get that Smallie! Thanks for watching!
Fun video. Keep finding those fish.
I appreciate you watching! I hope to keep finding them, although it can be frustratingly tough this time of year.
Always nice when it pays out!
Yeah I struggled all day and then found a good spot. Thanks!

Thanks for the information! If I'm ever heading in that direction again I may do that, I appreciate it!
Hey, I'd love to catch a carpsucker or a quillback. They're cool, and kinda hard to actually target. Cool to see someone exploring our rivers.
