Spring Kam river walleye

[Guest cmcrawfo]

Can you go fishing in the river for the long weekend

you can do anything, if you put your mind to it!

[Lyle Reiner 174]

Lol the launches are not open and the shore isn't safe all over either

[Lyle Reiner 174]

I was just down there, I dont think your going to be able to launch a boat this weekend, maybe next. the launch itself is pretty iced over. And its not open all the way across.

Also this sign was posted, Its not up year round, so its possible its illegal to be on the Kam right now with a watercraft?

[Guest FreshwaterFisherman]

Yeah I've never seen that before. Makes sense to stay off the river until confirmation as to wether its legal or not

[Guest Strav]

It looks good enough to fish off, by friday itll even get better, wonder what you would catch off the launch though...been waiting 4 months for fishing, even getting the line wet is worth it.

[Guest debruyne97]

Fishing can be good this weekend right off the dock...you'll get perch,rock bass and maybe some ruff

[Guest FreshwaterFisherman]

I've caught everything at the launch. I wouldn't get your hopes up about big numbers there.

[Guest debruyne97]

It does not matter about big numbers. As long as you go there and catch even one or two fish is fine.

[Guest FreshwaterFisherman]

Well best of luck

A pickerel rig with a big gob of worms and you can latch into a number of species of fish.....I find the sturgeon to be great fun if you hook into one with lighter gear right off the platform ot the neste launch.

[Guest debruyne97]

Just went fishing at the launch and nothing bite tried for 3 hours and nothing at all.

[Lyle Reiner 174]

The water is too cold. You'd have to pretty much hang a bait in front of them.. Even then, the current may be too strong for how lathargic they will be right now with the water temps.

It is illegal to target or possess sturgeon. Any fish caught must be immediately released unharmed.

Yup know all about that and informed a few people about it when they had sturgeon and were going to keep them.

One fella actually had a 6 plus footer in the back of his SUV already and revived and released it after I informed him of the closed season. It took two guys to carry it lol.

We don't intentionally catch sturgeon , usually its ruff,bass and pics(pickeral rig) with the odd carp and sucker that takes the bait.

But we have no control of sturgeon and you can on occasion have one take the bait and they are great fun to land with the lighter gear yee haw.... what a fight.

When we were able to target sturgeon it was with different baiting styles and much heavier gear.
