6/17/2021 12:45:00 PMWith the warm weather the bass have finished spawning and are starting to move deeper. The only bad thing with the warm weather is the increased boat traffic. You need to fish either early a.m. or late p.m. for the best success. Largemouth bass a...

6/17/2021 12:45:00 PMFishing has been phenomenal. The warm weather has got two definite bites going. The bluegill fishing on the weedline has been awesome. They are 6-8 ft down in 12-14 ft of water. If you find the weedline, the fish are there. The spawning bluegills are also in 5-6 ft of water on hard sand bottom. Make sure you have...

6/8/2021 8:45:00 AMJune 7, 2021 Steve Suman Those looking for a break in the 90-degree heat will have to wait until the weekend. Thunderstorms are possible throughout the week, most in evening hours, and highs remain in the upper 80s and nighttime lows in the mid-60s. Enjoy these days when and while you can ‑ spring and summer are relatively short seasons i...

6/8/2021 8:10:00 AMSummer has finally arrived. The warm temperatures and warmer water have made the fishing fantastic. It is great fun when there is action in multiple species. The boat traffic is intense but if you fish early, you should have a lot of fun. Walleyes have started to bite. T...
-
6/8/2021 8:05:00 AMFinally the fish are starting to bite on Lake Geneva. The panfish are just incredible right now, so if you have kids, now is a great time to get them out fishing with you. The action is almost non-stop. This past week I caught an 11 inch sunfish and bluegill so it’s not all about action, there are also some quality fish to b...

6/8/2021 8:05:00 AMFishing has been improving by the day on Delavan. The warmer stable weather has helped quite a bit. The lake was no busier this holiday weekend than any other summer weekend. I launched at 6:30 am on Memorial Day and there was no line to launch. &n...

6/8/2021 8:05:00 AMFishing has been very good with the warmer weather. The smallmouth are still in the shallows spawning. They are being readily caught either with leeches, nightcrawlers or tube jigs. Due to the cool spring the pleasure boat traffic has been very light. &...

6/3/2021 8:50:00 AMMay 31, 2021 Steve Suman Memorial Day weekend weather in the North Woods was mostly good, though somewhat cool. Those desiring warmer temperatures will get their wish this week, with sunshine and highs in the 80-degree range. This “trend” looks as if it will last most of this month ‑ and summer does not officially begin until ...

6/3/2021 8:45:00 AMMay 24, 2021 Steve Suman The forecast for this week shows a number of “chances for showers and thunderstorms” days, along with a cooling trend. Rain alone is not a terrible problem, but it is a good idea to watch for thunderstorms, particularly if you are recreating in open areas or spending time on the water. Friday through t...

5/24/2021 5:15:00 PMLargemouth bass are still spawning or trying to spawn in 2-5 ft of water. The hard sand areas are producing most of the action. Look for the fish by Lake Lawn Lodge or by the outlet bridge. I’ve been catching most of my fish either with a nightcrawler on a single hook or a Texas Rigg...

5/24/2021 5:15:00 PMThe smallmouth bass are a few days from really spawning hard on their flats. Look for the fish by the Military Academy, Elgin Club, Knollwood and Belvidere Park. The best presentation has either been drop shotting small green pumpkin finesse worms or dragging football head jigs with Chompers grubs. Most of my guide parties, I have...

5/24/2021 4:15:00 PMMay 17, 2021 Steve Suman The forecast indicates a warm week, but with rain showers possible from Tuesday evening through the weekend. However, if forecast history is an indicator (and it IS!), those showers might never reach fruition. Go forward with your outdoor recreation plans, but have a “Plan B” ‑ and keep an eye on ...

5/24/2021 4:15:00 PMOverall fishing remains inconsistent. The best bites on the lake are the bluegills and largemouth bass. There has been some walleyes and smallmouth action; however the bite changes with the day so it’s pretty tough to decipher a pattern. This cold weather has...
-
5/24/2021 4:15:00 PMWith the up and down temperatures the lake remains pretty cold which is causing some inconsistent fishing. The best bite on the lake is perch and largemouth bass. Stable weather is predicted and that will help turn on the smallmouth bass and blueg...

Trout fishing was very popular in these counties then (and in all of southwest Wisconsin) but the trout fishery was 98% dependent on stocking and trout were actually scarce in most streams. Also, there...

5/12/2021 9:45:00 AMThe weather continues to cause fishermen trouble. This past week it was cold and the very high winds that made fishing difficult. Overall, the fishing has been pretty good considering Mother Nature’s challenges. With a few warm days, the fish should really turn on. However, the forecast is for continued cool temperatures.&nb...

5/12/2021 9:45:00 AMThe main lakes water temperature is still hovering around 49 degrees. Unfortunately fishing on Lake Geneva is tough but should be improving if we get some nice weather that sticks around for a while. The bass have not yet begun to spawn. This bite is very predictable once the water starts to warm. With the very cold water, the fi...

5/12/2021 9:40:00 AMMay 10, 2021 Steve Suman This should be a mild and sunny week until... the weekend, when chances for rain make an appearance. Otherwise, look for sunshine, highs in the mid to upper 60s, and nighttime lows from the upper 20s to low 40s. Nice ‑ take advantage and get outdoors! “This is such a fun time of year,” says Pa...
