Hooked a log? Nope- sauger

Spare the specifics.

There was current.

Perfect.
No sense advertising.

Those are some great sauger. I’ve fished some lakes that produce big walleye but only small sauger for whatever reason.

Congrats on an awesome day! What’s the magic trick…jigs/minnow or jig/plastic?
Looks like you fellas have it figured out!

This is a poem of shaking heads, strong fights and delicious fried sauger.

4” plastic jerk minnow, buck tail and big salted minnow or crawler, 3” twister grub, deep jerkbait, Ned rig, plain jig and crawler…

Stopped just shy of throwing the kitchen sink. No love on tubes, plain bucktails, or blade baits. Struggled until we got enough weight for the depth/current.

Damn, I’d say you guys were persistent in finding the right formula. Must’ve been in some deep water. Congrats again on an awesome adventure.
