Fishing Report - Oct. 30
Fishermen haven't been out much locally, but thieves have taken the cash box at Bill's Bait in Jackson, said Bill Sirovy, Sr. on Friday - an unfortunate event that may threaten the existence of the small self-service shop. The nearest other bait dealers are in Sherburn and Spirit Lake, Iowa, he said.
On nearby Big Spirit Lake, the water temperature is 46 degrees, according to the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. With recent wind conditions, few boats have been on the lake. Fishing is rated as follows:
Bluegill - Good: Use ice fishing jigs tipped with wax worms or wigglers on the fishing pier at the Grade.
Crappie - Fair: A few fish are being caught on the fishing pier at the grade with a small bobber and minnow.
Yellow Perch - Fair: Use small jigging lures tipped with live bait. Fish have been caught at the Footbridge in 20 foot of water and in front of Buffalo Run in 7 foot of water.
Walleye - Fair: Fish at sunset with a twister tail near Marble Beach, Footbridge, or Buffalo Run.
