Went to the Forks last Friday, fished where the two rivers meet, just by the fire pits, used a black jig with Berkly Leech, no luck except for the rock snot on every cast. Changed to Texas rig with minnow, more rock snot, no fish. finished up with a pickeral rig and minnows, again, no fish or bites but lots of rock snot. Question is, what am I doing wrong and was I on the right river? any help would be greatly appreciated
What you were doing wrong was not gathering the rock snot up and frying it with butter. Deelish. You ain't never gonna catch fish until you've tried it. Tell me that you weren't throwing it back.
i've just about always been skunked at the Forks too. for all the hype it gets about possible producing trophy walleyes the water is always low and the action slow for me. beautiful spot, i just never get a lot of fish
I had some luck a couple weeks ago with a slip bobber and pitch'n jigs. We also tried pickerel rigs and had lots of bites but didn't manage to hook any. I think the key is getting a slow presentation that you can leave out there or slowly retrieve. I believe I was a little North of you too on the other side of the fallen tree from the fire pit.
The guys in the boats were doing well, its hard from shore to get out far enough
