12/18/2014 2:50:00 PMFor years we stayed for a week’s vacation with three other couples at a resort on Lake Minocqua. The Minocqua area in Wisconsin is a good choice because it can accommodate the 4-wheelers, the golfers, the shoppers, the restaurant connoisseurs, and the fishermen of our crew. The women plan this trip for an entire year, fine-tuning almost every...

12/7/2014 9:10:00 PMMany lakes are formed because of a dam. The rivers that fill those lakes are called feeder rivers. I was told that, in late summer, bass sometimes migrate up these feeder rivers because of the cooler oxygenated water.

He has been fishing the Wolf River in Wisconsin for years and everybody in the area knows him. He has done well in some of the local tournaments and has also guided in the area. Joe and his son, Louis, recently set up ...

9/24/2014 6:45:00 PMBy Randy Williams A long time ago, before cell phones, I went fishing with a good friend, Bert. We also took my wife’s little black dog named Nikki. The place we chose to fish was Lake Poygan. Our landing was on the east shore where the Duck Inn once was. We launched, put the dog in the boat, and then Bert tied up the boat on a dock. (Nikki...

9/19/2014 9:40:00 AMRandy Williams Jeff and I were going turkey hunting early one morning. It was the spring turkey season in Central Wisconsin. As we parked at the edge of our hunting field, a heavy rain pelted the truck. We unloaded the gear and trudged across that slippery muddy field into the deluge. Often a rain like this would dampen your spirits, h...
