Hutch say's...

First I would like to thank all of my customers for booking trips with me in 2011 and hope we can go again in 2012. If you scroll through last year and the year before catch's/trips by tapping on 2011 or 2010 trip/catches above you can see both Lake Oahe and Lake Sharpe are producing some Hay Days catch's with limits of walleye almost at a 100 per cent rate. There have been more numbers of big walleye being caught with reports of 10 to 15 pound walleye almost a weekly thing this fall.

I still don't think Of Oahe as a trophy lake but they are there along with great numbers of two to three lb fish. Northern fishing was up big time last year with good number's coming in and catching one over 20 pounds a realistic possibly.

Oahe and Sharpe are also both full of smallmouth bass averaging two to three pounds.

Cat fishing and white bass fishing are almost all you want to catch and there are no limits on catfish on Oahe.

The Salmon fishing was way off and there were more catch's of these fish below the Dam this fall raising the possibly that many of these fish went through the tubes with the record water releases all summer. This could also explain the number of big walleye being caught below the Dam. It sounds like water levels will be down from the all time highs. I expect them to still be much higher than they were in the 2000 to 2008 levels and I expect fishing to be similar to the last two years on Oahe and maybe even better on Sharpe.

I will break down how we usually guide month by month next and if you would like to see how we catch them read some of my reports for the time frame that you might be fishing on either Sharpe or Oahe to see what we are using to catch the fish.

Hope to see you soon.
