TOURNAMENT GRADE MINNOWS AVAILABLE!
These minnows are soooo big that if you don’t catch anything on them (which is highly unlikely), you can get a nice little fillet off them.

The next few months are prime Bass fishing months! They are really turned on right now. We’ve got some sweet deals on spinnerbaits, a wide selection of frogs, the new Claptails, of course Whopper Ploppers, Bubba worms and all kinds of fun bass lures!
Angustora has been pumping out huge smallies, New Wall Dam is a great bass dam, Howe’s Corner, the Rez dams hold some toads, right in town here the bass are doing great, Sheridan Lake and Stockade put out some real nice ones, Cottonwood Springs and Legion Lake you can get some action, Oahe has a trophy class of smallies, that Ft Thompson area has big smallies, and Durkee Lake just to name a few.

If your batteries die on your bubbler it can’t ruin a good day of fishing, plus it’s a pain to keep track of, and it can be expensive if your bait dies from a bad battery.
The SOLAR-POWERED BAIT SHACK solves all your problems and makes all your dreams come true!
Get one at THE ROOSTER!

Good morning and good luck to everyone that is participating in this weekend’s JARED ROE MEMORIAL TOURNAMENT at Angustora!
This is truly one of the best local tournaments of the year, and with the excellent walleye bite this year it should be outstanding!
We worked with the Roe’s to help provide a couple truckloads of excellent prizes! The Roe’s do such a great job with the tournament prizes!
A lot of under 15” walleyes are biting, along with the catfish and the smallmouth bass are in spawn mode so they too are really aggressive. Recommend taking plenty of bait. We’ve gotten reports of the walleyes biting all over the lake in depths of 10ft-25ft. This time of year they are biting on minnows, crawlers, and leeches, we have Jumbo Minnows, Jumbo Leeches, and Jumbo Potbelly Nightcrawlers! Some guys are catching em on jigs/minnows yet, some on Lindy Rigs/leech, and some on Slow Death Hook spinner-bottom bouncer rigs/crawlers, and some are pulling crankbaits.
Best of Luck and Have Fun!

Little girl celebrated her 4th Birthday with a Big Ol’ Rainbow!
The heat has driven the trout down below the thermocline level in the cooler water. The Ned Head Jigs have been on fire 🔥 lately fished right on the bottom with small plastic Fire worms, the Atomic Tubes have also been great! Trout love salmon eggs and we’ve got a full line up of Pautzke!
Pactola, Horsetheif, Deerfield, Center Lake, Iron Creek have been hot spots lately.

Ok Boys and Girls, this Saturday morning at Memorial Pond is the Walleyes Unlimited Kids Fishing Derby!
Make sure you put your parents to bed early Friday night so you can wake them up early Saturday morning! You’ll want to be there by 8am.
We’re sending down about a 1,000 potbelly Nightcrawlers. We’re hoping that’s enough so you don’t have to bite them in half, if you do bite them in half make sure you wash the dirt off first or it’s gonna make your FREE lunch taste funny.
We worked with Walleyes Unlimited to get a big load of FREE fishing poles, hooks, bobbers, and weights for you! Walleyes Unlimited does an outstanding job putting on this event!
The Game, Fish and Parks have also done an outstanding job developing and managing Memorial Pond as a very popular Urban Fishery that is being enjoyed by many kids; the adults are having just as much fun taking the kids to this very accessible Urban Fishery with a variety of species to catch!
