Report from Anglers Plus Guide Service:  Three great days on the Fox River with Deb and Brian from Minnesota.  We put walleyes up to 24” in the boat, with several nice fish on blade baits and the rest on jigs with minnows.  Fish were caught in 8-12’ by the washout, along the main channel, along sand breaks, and in mid river rock areas.
