Log Perch! I commented down below 👇, but definitely a Log Perch. Very cool you caught a Brown Trout , the “Driftless region” out there is loaded with hundreds of trout streams , many that flow right into the Mississippi. So every once in awhile a Trout gets caught in the main river, but not very common at all.
@@zachswildlife22 the only stream I know of is called Black Earth creek, but there’s a list of trout streams as well as public access maps on the DNR website. I need to explore more of them myself!
Gotta love the Mississippi barges and nice video! I fished Clements a mess of times south of Best Dam Float, have a Perch video on my page here from a couple years back at Clements. Also fished Hubbards Float south of Clements. Haven’t tried Best Dam Float yet but it’s on my list of future destinations. By the way that fish you caught and called a Guppy is a (Log Perch) , a small and rare species in the Perch / Walleye family. The Mississippi has like over 200 species of fish so you never know what you’ll hook next. By the way I subscribed under my fishing page here, and my personal UA-cam account as well! Keep up the good work! 🎣
@@zachswildlife22 thanks so much, I appreciate the support! Hubbards is in Harpers Ferry IA. I haven’t been there in many years, but we always got a lot of walleyes whenever we went.
While the landing that serves the float is difficult to find once you are out there it's fantastic while you can only use one rod at a time when you are on the float itself, it's best to take three, a light for panfish, a medium for walleyes, and a heavy for cats and sturgeon, they have food, and decent restrooms and some tackle, but they don't have bait so get that in LaCrosse, it's a great place to fish and relax, eagles river boats and barge traffic, and some huge lake surgeon ( protected catch and release except during the fall season when you have to have a tag, the legal length varies from year to year so it's best to check the regs) shovel nose sturgeon, walleyes, white bass, huge perch, blue, flathead, and channel cats, sauger, and more, if it's in this part of the river, it's here, plenty of lodging in town at varying price ranges, from mom and pop motels to the national chains, this place is head and shoulders above the place in Genoa downriver, ( which I won't even name it's so disgusting) the boat from the landing runs once an hour, except for noon when the boat driver takes his lunch, go and you won't regret it, it's a great trip! ( and don't worry about a net, there's one provided for every picnic table!)
What species was that guppy we caught?
