October 3rd to 7th Lake Oahe and Lake Sharpe, Pierre SD Fishing Report

[Hutch]

To start with I am going to mention that as the fishing season winds down I will be posting my reports around every five days or so. GFP's did have another meeting last Tuesday and I will pass some of that info on this week. The fishing around Pierre is still staying about the same on Oahe with walleye, northern scattered and smallmouth going strong. The nights are starting to get colder and I noticed today the surface temp on Oahe was in the high 50's so as this comes down some nice walleye should start to come in from shallow water jig pitching and some lead core pulling for the deeper fish. I guided a father/son/father in law the Rodrivyez's from Sioux Falls and Michigan to limits of walleye on Sharpe and then limits of smallmouth bass with some walleye and a northern on Oahe on day two. I Had a good time with this family and they got a little colder days in the 50's but nice other than that. We caught the walleye on Sharpe in 10 fow on both crawlers and minnows with bouncers but I think my next trip out I am going to put some jigs/minnows down as the water temps are coming down. We caught the smallmouth/walleye on Oahe on minnow bouncer rigs in around 20 fow. Got some wind coming in the next few days but the week end look's ok.
