Catfish Tournament Saturday

The water is low but that does not deter the dedicated fisherman or woman.

This weekend has a catfish tournament based at Guttenberg Motel.

Bob's got the latest on staying up late, coming to work early and selling fresh seasonal produce along with the usual fishing fare.

Bluegills on the wing dams seems to be getting better.   Catch a giant Sheepshead (Drum) if you have heavy enough tackle to reel it in.

We also spoke with Sam Willett, a guide from Dubuque who lays out the challenges of low water in the big river right now.  He is also a new grandpa as of Thursday.

Be safe on the river.  Submerged obstacles are closer in low water.
