Fishing Tips:
FROM
HIMSELF!
WORKING RIVER WING DAMS
Reviewing a typical
wing dam you'll
note there are
numerous fish on
all regions of the
structure. Manmade
wing dams in
rivers are one of the
most productive
spots in a river an
angler can fish. Let's
give it a go as we
spot our fish targets
from above by
marking each fish's
position.
A) At 'A' we have
C) If northern pike or muskie exist on the wing dam structure you will find them at 'C'.
D) White Bass, a suspended species on the manmade submerged dam, can be found
at 'D' where they enjoy the benefit of being first to feed on the downstream passage of
minnow schools.
E) At 'E' in front of the structure you'll find a pair of large smallmouth bass, or at times
a largemouth bass or maybe a large flathead catfish.
Note: All the species from 'A' to 'E' MUST be fished from an above approach to meet success.
This you can do by anchoring upstream or by a slow stationary troll of your boat
which works your bait (side to side) across these positions of the dam.
