4/6/2012 2:55:00 PMThe cold weather has put a damper on the boat traffic. There are still bluegills and crappies to be had. Most of the fish are in 2-3 ft of water. You need to keep moving to find the bigger fish. Bluegill fishing is good in 2 ft of water. The best success is in the boat channels. Look for the fish in Viewcrest Channel,...

4/6/2012 2:40:00 PMIt seems that summer came and left! The water temperature has dropped 10 degrees from last week. The fish seem to be very sluggish right now. Thanks to my friend, Brian Simon, there is a Walleyes for Tomorrow organization, where they are going to be harvesting eggs from the breeding stock of Lake Geneva and stocking the lake with ...

We have been catching a lot of fish averaging 40 to 80 per outing but a lot of those fish have been small males in the 14 to 17 inch range that have been staging in water dep...

3/29/2012 4:25:00 PMBy Licensed Guide Phil Schweik Even though we are just getting into April the walleye season has been off to a great start. With the warm temperatures in early and mid March we saw a drastic temperature spike causing the water temps to push well into the 50's. The higher than normal temps caused a surge in the walleye spawning season and fis...

3/20/2012 4:35:00 PMWith the warm temperatures we here at Hooksetters are pulling the plug on ice fishing for the season. The ice in many areas is almost gone and even further north it is honeycombing and dangerous. Even with 14 to 20 inches of ice the strength when honeycombed is not there and can be very deceiving and dangerous. It was a great season and...

3/12/2012 3:40:00 PMBy Dick Ellis The Wolf River is on a steady prowl this April 7th overcast afternoon near Fremont. Occasionally, a gust of wind kicks waves up on the long stretches of straight river, but hundreds of anglers are hunkered in and comfortable. They’re working wood on protected bends or moving to anchor on the shallower sand flats to target...

3/12/2012 2:35:00 PMSo much for the last weekend of gamefish season. Last Wednesday's dumping of snow (20-22" on average) put a halt to getting out on the ice. Prior to that, fishing was very good, but now access is tough. Two days of warm weather (mid 30s) compacted snow down some, but still truck and ATV travel are out of the question. Foot t...

3/7/2012 1:45:00 PMBy, Dave Hraychuck Now that the game fish tip ups have been put away for another season, it’s time to go for the big gills! Pay attention to the ice, it will tell you when the season is over and it’s time to get the boats ready! A recent heavy snow in northwestern Wisconsin has affected the ice, covering it with a wet, slushy bla...

3/2/2012 12:25:00 PMBy Dick Ellis A full moon showed the way along the many turns of the Wolf River and the gentle hum of John Faucher’s small outboard briefly intruded on a perfect night near New London. The jonboat, guided by Faucher’s hand on the tiller, had taken the same journey downriver on countless nights; past a surprising wilderness settin...

2/24/2012 3:00:00 PMPlan ahead for May fishing ... think about the St. Louis River at Superior for walleyes. They open the refuge the third week in May and with it comes some of the best walleye fishing anywhere. If you want to see what we did, check out our column and photos in Gold Rush. Read More

With the line riding current downstream, Williams ripped the florescent fly in, quickly reeled back the slack, and ripped again. The sting ...

Black lights mounted port and starboard near the rear of the boat illuminated four lines disappearing into the dark to lead perch a...

12/31/1899 11:50:00 PMWell I’ll bet this isn’t what most of you expected for October, but it’s Wisconsin and anything can happen. I woke up today with 26 degrees on the thermometer with a steady northwest breeze. Brrrrr…. The Wisconsin River is still at flood stage and nearly unfishable except for some of the backwater ...

12/31/1899 11:50:00 PMOpening weekend of the 2019 sturgeon spearing season on the Winnebago System is now complete. There were 108 fish harvested today with 56 coming from Lake Winnebago and 52 from the Upriver Lakes. The 2-day harvest total from Lake Winnebago was 153 fish, which is very similar to opening weekend during the 2016 and 2018 seasons where 147 ...

At this time, conditions look good Wednesday through Thursday for people traveling for Thanksg...

12/31/1899 11:45:00 PMWell the 2018 gun deer season has started out with a “Bang”. The deer harvest is up 18% from last year and that is with fewer hunters in the woods. With that said it tells me that the deer population is doing better in the state and hopefully it will continue in that direction. A few brave ice fishermen have been hitting the...
