Default Pembina Saturday

So I've been hearing about this mythical Pembina River where a guy can actually keep a couple walleye for a long time, but never seemed to manage to make my way over to check it out.

Well, that finally changed yesterday when I headed out with buckmaster and buckmasterjr to try to slay some walleye. We rolled out around 6am and arrived at the river shortly after 7, got our gear together and walked down to the water. The sun was just coming out and there was a mist over the river...very neat to see. Also, the scenery out there is very nice



First off I must say I was blown away by just how clean the water in this river is, which is a good thing since we were wading and there were a lot of big boulders just waiting to be tripped on if you couldn't see. We were fishing near a little trib that was bringing in muddy water, and there was a very distinct line where the two waters met, and walking through the muddy stuff was sketchy business indeed!

So we spent the morning exploring around the area, chucking jigs at the edge of the dirty water (and sacrificing a few to the boulders) and pulling in quite a few walleye...sadly none were big enough to keep, but there were more than enough fish there to keep us entertained for the morning. We ended up calling it quits around 12:30 and we were back on the road home by 1.











More pics coming...
