| I live in the metro area of Minnesota, and I was looking to try and fish some more river systems this year. I have google mapped the upper St. Croix, St. Louis and the Big Fork to see if my boat would float in those waters. I am not looking to steal spots or move in on someones water, just trying to see what stretchs of river are fishable and might possibly hold fish. Also any areas that are dangerous and what I might avoid. Is it possible to take a fiberglass boat on any of that water or is it best to float and drift?
"Oh Bob, that is the biggest fish I have ever seen" |

Location: WI | No muskies on the "upper" (above the dams) St Louis. At least not a fishable population. I think I've only ever heard of one being caught. Some dudes I know tried to float it for smallies flyfishing, and had a heck of a time in the low water. It took them many hours longer than they anticipated. |

| Back in my college days we used to float the upper St. Louis for walleye and smallies. My trusty ol' Old Towne canoe was brand new back then and many of its first scratches and dings were made on that stretch. Pretty skinny water...

Location: Big Falls MN | I live right near the big fork you wont get a big boat on the river during musky season. A jon boat would be your best bet any tome of the year. |
