Fishing the Des Plaines River for Smallmouth, Sauger, and Bluegill

[@DpuckFishingandOutdoors]

I love the polka dot fish! I had a lake by me that half the bass had the birthmarks.

Enjoyed the video. Congratulations on the sauger. What setup do you use for your ned rigs(rod reel line) we usethem in the winter in Texas for largemouth. I appreciate what you do.

I typically opt for my Ugly Stick GX2 or my old reliable Diawa Samarai spooled with 8-10 lbs test mono on spinning reels
