The warm, sunny weekend renewed spirits, and none too soon, since the May 4 game fish opener is this coming Saturday. The forecast indicates a few weather bumps in the road ahead, but it appears we are at last heading in the right direction. “...

4/30/2013 1:00:00 PMThe water temperature remains cold. The cool nights have made fishing tough this year. The best bite on the lake remains yellow perch as they continue to be in the shallow waters.

4/25/2013 1:00:00 PMWinter just will not let go! Fresh snow on Monday night into Tuesday morning is delaying open water more and more. It is also making ice conditions tougher to get around for guys still out on the hard water taking advantage of the long, late season ice. Fishermen are catching all species right now in certain areas. Old weed beds from the past se...

4/25/2013 12:15:00 PMGreat walleye bite on the Wisconsin River right now. Lots of nice eating sized fish being caught and a few very nice slot fish (20 to 28 inches) as well. Most of the action has been coming on lead head jigs tipped with fathead minnows working the deeper pools in the river but lately with the higher faster water a lot of the fish have sl...

We are already more than a month into spring and have yet to enjoy any real spring weather! Pa...

4/22/2013 2:20:00 PMWow, we're going into the end of April and I have to do an Ice fishing report. Most lakes still have 15 to 20 inches of ice in most places and the Crappie are hitting good, Tip Downs or Deadsticks and Crappie minnows are doing well. For the fishermen that like to jig, small spoons or jigs with plastics are doing good. The Crappie are suspended hig...
