Justin, I am looking forward to the Spring trip as well.
How has the river been treating you down that way?

Great report Dustin. Thanks for the info. I am thinking about taking my mom down for a little sauger action this weekend. Hopefully the bit will be picking back up.

I have been fishing a lot this month and when we can get around all the weeds floating down we have put a few fish in the boat. Every day it seems to get a little better. we are night fishing this week which is a lot of fun! See ya in 2010.

? what is a wing dam :
A wing dam is a manmade barrier that, unlike a conventional dam, only extends partway into a river. These structures force water into a fast-moving center channel which reduces the rate of sediment accumulation, while slowing water flow near the riverbanks.
The Mississippi River has thousands of wing dams which were originally constructed to reduce the amount of dredging required when the main navigation channel was maintained to at least 4½ feet (1.37 m). Since that time, additional conventional dams have been built to increase the water level in the river, doubling the depth of the navigation channel to 9 feet (2.75 m). The wing dams still serve their purpose, but to a lesser extent than before.

They have some interesting side effects, too, like creating turbulence in places that create scour holes in the river bottom... NICE place for fishing, them. Before the dams got bigger, the space between wing dams would actually accumulate sediment and fill in, creating wooded shoreline habitat for many species including the now-extinct barking tree moose and a rare specie of catfish, the "wood cat".
Funny what you learn reading signs and posters at places like Lock and Dam #1...
