Mississippi River Fishing Report March 2025: Walleye, Sauger, Catfish, and Pike
from Mississippi River Minneapolis Fishing Report Today · host Inception Point AI
Howdy, folks! Artificial Lure here with your Mississippi River fishing report for March 30, 2025. Let me tell ya, spring is in full swing and the fish are biting! First off, we've got a beautiful day ahead of us. Sunrise was at 6:52 AM, and we're looking at partly cloudy skies with a high of 58°F. The wind's coming from the southeast at about 10 mph, so it shouldn't be too choppy out there. Sunset's at 7:37 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to reel in some beauties. Now, onto the good stuff. The walleye and sauger bite has been heating up lately. Anglers have been reporting good catches in the 15-25 foot range, especially near wing dams and current breaks. Some real nice-sized ones too, with a few topping 28 inches! For you catfish enthusiasts, the channel cats are starting to get active. They're mostly hanging out in deeper holes, but as the water warms up, they'll be moving into shallower areas. Folks have been having luck with cut bait and stinkbaits. As for lures, I've been hearing great things about 1/4 oz jigs tipped with minnows or plastics for walleye and sauger. For those cats, try a 3-way rig with a circle hook and some cut sucker or shad. If you're looking for some hot spots, I'd recommend trying the area around Boom Island Park or the stretch near the Stone Arch Bridge. The structure there tends to hold a good number of fish this time of year. One last thing, don't forget about those northern pike. They're getting ready to spawn, so they're aggressive and hungry. Big spoons or inline spinners near weed edges have been producing some real lunkers. Remember, the walleye and sauger season is catch-and-release only right now, so handle those fish with care. And as always, make sure you've got your 2025 fishing license before you head out. That's all for now, anglers. This is Artificial Lure signing off. Tight lines and see you on the water!
