About

Join Captain Luke for some fun on the water chasing walleyes, sauger or jumbo perch on the Upper Mississippi. When fishing pools 7, 8, & 9 your captain will use his discretion to determine the best pool to fish based on recent results and water conditions.

Spring Perch (Approximately March 20th – First week of May spawn)

The mighty Mississippi River has evolved into a world-class perch fishing destination over the last 10 years. If you are looking to increase your odds for a great day of jumbos make sure to book early as we chase the perch on their spawn migration routes on pool 7, 8, & 9 from about April 10th- April 25th or pool 4 from about April 15th to May 1st. All tackle and bait will be provided and the technique of choice will be “rod in hand” jigging.

Mandatory items to bring
- WI or MN Fishing license
- Signed waiver (can be signed at boat landing before trip departure)

Recommended items to bring
- Raingear
- Warm clothes (remember water is still cold so temperature will be much colder in boat than on land). Better to layer with warm clothes than be cold.
- Waterproof warm footwear
- Gloves
- Hat
- Sunscreen
- Food/snacks

- Cooler with ice for fish transport home (can be left in vehicle)

Spring Walleye and Sauger (Approximately April 10th - April 25th spawn)

Join Captain Luke for a fun day on the water chasing spring walleye and on Mississippi River Pools 7, 8, or 9 (depending on which pool has been producing best based on current conditions) to try to ensure a successful trip, or choose a trip on pool 4 and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Lake Pepin Bluff country. If you are looking to increase your odds for a great day of 20+ inch walleyes, make sure to book early as the chase is on following the walleyes on their spring spawn migration routes on pool 7, 8, & 9 from about April 10th- April 25th or pool 4 from about April 15th to May 1st. All tackle and bait will be provided and the technique of choice during the spawn will be “rod in hand” jigging and post spawn can include trolling with crankbaits.

It is a fun time to chase the perch as they become very active chasing baitfish and shad. Your Captain will use his discretion in choosing between Mississippi River Pools 7, 8, or 9 (depending on which pool has been producing best based on current conditions) to try to ensure a successful trip, or choose a trip on pool 4 and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Lake Pepin Bluff country.
