5/22/2013 3:25:00 PMThe lilacs are blooming and the crappies are biting. It is that time of the year again when the crappies have moved up to the shallows to begin their spawning ritual. Most fish will be suspended around shoreline timber and brush but a few will be located along side shallow stumps. To target these feisty panfish all you need is a bobber ...

5/22/2013 8:40:00 AMMay 20, 2013 Steve Suman Mild temperatures and rain are on tap all week, weather typical of the too-long-awaited spring!

5/21/2013 11:55:00 AMGood Morning. Spring is catching up rather quickly. Water temps are warming enough that crappies and muskies are being seen in the shallows. No crappies bedding as of yet, but muskies are pairing up. Fishing has remained good if the weather- rain and more rain- sought to slow anglers’ attempts. Walleye: Very Good. The spawn is all but over...

5/21/2013 11:45:00 AMConsidering the late ice out, the lakes are warming at a fast rate. Some of the bigger lakes around here are in the low to mid 50's for water temperature and some of the smaller and dark colored lakes are already in the upper 50's. The lakes are changing fast and as fisherman, we need to do the same and adapt to the water temperature. It’s ea...

The grass was long enough to warrant a first-time flyby w...

5/20/2013 4:00:00 PMDecent Weather & Decent Fishing We are progressing into the fishing season and it has been very good so far and this trend should continue to get better. Quite a bit of a person’s success depends on the water temp of the lake. Temps ranging from 42 to 49 probably mean fish are in spawn mode and in this case you want to fish r...

5/20/2013 12:35:00 PMThis spring has been very cold so the lake is still about 2 weeks behind schedule. With the cold water temperatures the overall fishing has been on the tough side. The best bite still remains largemouth bass in the shallows. Largemouth bass fishing has been average. The active fish are being caught in Trinkes or in Geneva B...

5/20/2013 12:30:00 PMFishing on Delavan Lake has been really good. The bass are starting to spawn in the shallows and the Northern Pike remain in the shallow weed flats feeding heavily.

5/20/2013 11:30:00 AMBy, Dave Hraychuck May 17, 2013 What a difference a week makes! Sunshine, increasing water temperatures, and weeds starting to green up are the main ingredients for a great fishing trip! Walleye fishing has been fair to good. Fishing rock bars and weed edges with a jig and minnow, small Rapplas, or Shad Raps seem to work best. Anglers have...
