Missouri River (ND Lower Portion) - Tuesday, September 13, 2011

There is a pretty good bite going up and down the whole system right now, with walleyes getting caught from the tailrace all the way down to the stateline.  I spent quite a bit of time south of Bismarck this past weekend with most of our fish coming on crankbaits, which is a big change from the jig bite we had going last week. All the fish we kept were in the 17-20 inch range with lots of smaller ones and a few pike mixed in, which keeps a person pretty busy. I'm sure a person could still get em on jigs but we decided to go with the cranks to cover some new water and see if we could find a few different spots.  It will be interesting to see what happens this weekend with the Prairie Knights Casino tournament, should be some good weights brought in.  Good luck to everyone fishing in the tournament.
