Love it. Reminds me of the Mahoning River in northeast Ohio where I'm from. It used to be insanely polluted back when Youngstown was still producing steel. Now I get them in pretty much every stretch and theres clearly natural reproduction. I love throwing cranks for them at night, especially at spillways when the water is high. Spring and fall is the only time of year you can do well in the daylight. Can be hit or miss, but 20 keepable fish in a couple hours is great. Unfortunately the rare times I keep any it's on nights I can barely get three
The lesueur isn't even flowing this year and all the fish headed down river at least 20 miles. Bare with me and the content will come back. I've been super busy with our newborn baby girl. I promise I'm not done yet bud there will be more content and thanks for watching! I appreciate it so much.
Love the video! Hard to beat fall walleye action. Mind if I ask you just a couple questions? I've never fished that river before, but I'd sure like to. I know the general area, I've fished the Blue Earth near Rapidan before and I'm only about an hour away. Not asking for your exact spots, but how do you know where you can legally access the water and walk along the bank? Also, do you fish it all year long, or only in the fall? Ever get any in the spring or summer? Thanks man!
I got spots from blue earth to Mankato.... walleye for daysssss!! Plenty of spots to fish without land owner consent/ public land... tons of walleye man!
@@fishinwitha-a-ron9164Want to hook a brotha up? I'd love to check out some new spots if you were willing to share any! I only get down that way a few times per year but I'm always looking for new areas to try.
@@mudlakeoutdoors1344 Yeah the past couple years made river fishing crazy because the water got so low that pretty much anywhere with slack water had a buttload of fish of all species
I'm not looking to give away my spots bud just invest a little time and you'll find them. Look for structure like eddys, sand bars, holes (anything deeper than your waist will hold good fish), rock piles or bars, down trees and confluences. Just work the bottom with a jig and twister and you too can have success in southern Minnesota! Good luck my friend and thanks for watching.
It doesn't work like that bud, I worked long and hard to find every hole. I have faith in you, just go explore while the waters low and you'll find em.
@@mudlakeoutdoors1344 The entire water shed was tiled up So rich idiots can have a t bone every night. Give the man a break! Try fishing a confluence. Seem to have better luck in the fall. White mister twister work good.
@@tytraulich4987 if everyone just publicly gave there spots out, fishing would be shit. That's how that works. Put the work in and you'll get rewarded. Might take alot, but that's life bud lmao.
@@mudlakeoutdoors1344 thanks very much.I just moved up here from Texas 2yrs ago and I'm trying to familiarize myself with the fisheries you guys have up here.Thanks once again🤙
I need to explore more rivers in southern mn, this would be an absolute dream

Turtle Creek around Austin has produced action just like this!!! Everyone thinks there is only red horse suckers in there. Think again!
The rivers of Southern Minnesota are amazing. Here in Iowa it's a good day if you catch 2. I'm hoping you can kick out some content soon.

No issues with getting sand and grit in your reel when you lay it down on the mud and silt along shore?
Yeah but I only have 50 bucks into the reels and I pull them apart and oil everything from time to time so I get a little careless when I'm excited.
Mud lake outdoors
What county are you from? Wanna join my shit show for a adventure this summer? Got a kayak? I’m East of kato area
I'm in Blue Earth county so if I can find the time this spring I'd love to float the river with another outdoorsman.
@@mudlakeoutdoors1344 sounds good. I’m sure we fish a lot of the same areas!
New ulm area here!
Wow ive never seen anything like that from the mn river maybe i just havent fish the yet.
That's amazing! Out of that little crick! Who needs the Mississippi or Lake Minnetonka?
It changes every year but some years it truly is hard to beat bud.

I happen to be lucky enough to have access from a landowner. Some years they stay, all depends on the water bud.
