Black, minority Trump supporters censored by Gannett, other media at 2020 RNC Convention. Expect the same as Milwaukee hosts 2024 RNC Convention. Look back four years Wisconsin, to compare and contrast Gannett’s corrupt coverage of the 2020 Republican and Democratic National Conventions to know what to expect July 15-18 when the nation’s eyes rest on Milwaukee, home of the 2024 RNC convention.  The DNC will showcase its conventi...

    Steve Suman Our North Wood’s weather transitioned from “no” spring to summer-like temperatures almost overnight, and Memorial Day weekend bordered on perfect. This week’s forecast offers a few chances for rain, but also very mild nighttime lows and highs in the upper 70s into the 80-degree range. Warmth and sunshine –...

    With the Memorial Day weekend, fishing traffic has been intense.  The fishing has been improving daily, most of the lake fly hatch has subsided and the fish are again biting.  The water temperature is rising and the bluegills are moving into the shallows. Northern Pike have still been very active in the 6-10 ft depth range where there ar...

    The water is warming nicely and therefore the fishing is improving.  The memorial weekend is showing an increase in boat traffic but the fishing pressure has not been that strong.  The smallmouth bass are starting to move in to spawn and now is the best time to catch the nice smallies. Smallmouth bass are scattered in 12-15 ft of water.&...

    After a little taste of winter late last week (yes, snowflakes on May 15) and the drop in water temperature that comes with the cold, things look good from here on out with a nice gradual warm up for the next 7-10 days.  We will need the warmth and sun to get the weeds growing.  We are weeks behind on both plant growth above and below the...

    The water is starting to warm up with the nicer weather we have been having. The forecast looks great, and this coming week of fishing should really heat up. When the water hits the 50 degree mark, it seems the fish really start to turn on. That includes both largemouth and smallmouth bass, as they prepare for the spawning season. The fish need to...

    Walleye fishing has still been good for Ross's Sport Shop Guides, with the lowered daily bag limits on most of the area lakes it takes no time to limit out with nice walleyes. Our guides have been catching walleye in 4 to 15 feet of water depending on the lake we are fishing.  When we are fishing shallow we are looking for mud flats with wood,...

There was only the slight matter of fording a stream to reach the camp.  With a spray of water above my truck’s...

    Action in Central Wisconsin for multi-species is really turning on.  Anglers are having a lot of fun catching walleyes, crappies, bass and pike.  In addition to the previously mentioned species action has been very good for bluegills and catfish.  All in all the bite has been extremely good. Most of the anglers are targetin...

    Steve and Rob Tobin  targeted coho salmon out of Milwaukee May 14 when this 22 pound King hit in 35 feet of water with water temperature at 48 degrees.  45 minute battle on a three color lead core reel and rod.  The Tobin brothers also caught nine cohos for a two-man limit in a few hours.

    Well, the smelt run is all over with for Ashland, everyone. Roger LaPenter, proprietor of Anglers All, said there was no action at all Saturday night.

    This past week was cold and the lake didn’t warm up too much.  We also 5 inches of rain, which kept the fishing action low.  The forecast for this week is sunshine and decent temps so the water should continue to warm and increase the fishing opportunities.   Smallmouth bass can be caught on either a small pink headed hai...

    Delavan Lake continues to busy with fishermen.  With the 5 inches of rain this week and a lake fly hatch the fishing has slowed a bit and the numbers from last week have been reduced a little.  With the warm weather predicted for this weed it should ignite the bite. Some walleyes are being caught off the main lake points in 26-28 ft of w...

    Unfortunately, the smelt run has diminished once again, folks. “The wind switched, started coming out of the south, and pushed everything out into the deep water,” said Roger LaPenter, proprietor of Anglers All, referring to the drop-off in numbers on Friday night.
