Cast and Jig at Prairie Queen

An evening fishing trip to Prairie Queen with 2 friends on Wednesday night. Hot afternoon temps and hot fishing bite! We started tossing small jigs tipped with leeches against the veg line drop near one of the bigger shoals, lots of small Bluegill, Redear, and a couple hungry Bass danced for us!  Moved to 3-4 spots to deeper water 10-14’ range, small Bluegill dominated the catch with an occasional Redear!  Last hour of fishing was the boat anchored up on the Walleye hole that begins in 9’ and trails into 13’ to the west.  This spot or the timing of the sun going down is always good fishing at Prairie Queen. We caught lots of Redear to 8.5”, a handful of Crappie and 3-4 Bass up to 16”.  Two Walleye, a 13” and 17” fish.  Catch & release trip - always fun to explore the variety of aquatic habitats, shoals and drop offs that Prairie Queen has to offer.
