7/28/2015 12:20:00 PMMid summer weather has certain species setting up in typical patterns for this time of year. Other species not so much. Large mouth Bass: very good. Providing the best overall action for our summer visitors. A myrid of tactics from simple wacky worming, to Carolina rigging, to crank baiting and top wet or buz...

7/28/2015 12:10:00 PMFishing on Delavan continues to be very good. The only limiting factor is an excess of anglers pursuing them. With the difficult weather we’ve had, it has become clear that the days with rain & clouds have been producing the most action. The walleye fishing has been the best it’s been in over 7 years, every trip I&...

7/28/2015 12:05:00 PMLake Geneva is in its mid-summer transition from a shallow water bite to a deep water bite. The thermocline has not yet formed and is still a few degrees a way for the deep water bite to be really hot. Largemouth bass fishing has been average in the 12-15 ft depth range. Anglers are catching them either drop shotting or fishing Texas r...

7/15/2015 9:35:00 AMSteve Suman This could be a nice week, but it is difficult to tell by the forecasts! Temperatures warm through the week and every day shows “chances” of thunderstorms, but all less than 50 percent. Watch for severe weather, but do not allow a little moisture to dampen your outdoor fun! “Rains slowed fishing, but the fi...

7/15/2015 9:35:00 AMIt is shaping up to be a regular summer, finally. Water temps are in the mid to upper 70’s (saw one lake hit 80 degrees on a warm Saturday). The higher water temps are pushing some fish deeper, while making others more active. Largemouth Bass: Very good. The largemouth population continues to grow here in the Nor...

-
6/30/2015 8:35:00 PMFinally, area lakes are seeing temperatures in the low 70’s, giving Largemouth Bass and Bluegill anglers what they have been looking for! A few mayfly hatches have been reported lately and when they have been, they are coming in small patches, not entire lakes worth. With this food source out of the way, walleyes should be a bit e...
-
6/30/2015 8:20:00 PMFishing on Lake Geneva has been the best it’s been in the last five years. The bass, both largemouth and smallmouth are still shallow and available for the catch. Smallmouth bass are being caught on split shot rigged nightcrawlers or Texas rigged plastic worms in green pumpkin color. Look for the fish in 10-12 ft of water. ...

6/30/2015 8:15:00 PMIt was another great week in central Wisconsin and with lots of upcoming outdoor activities a person just doesn’t know where to start. I know for starters I am personally attending the Mercury Marine Summer Challenge Musky Tournament in Eagle River run by theP.M.T.T. This should be a blast...
-
6/30/2015 8:15:00 PMFishing on Delavan Lake continues to be outstanding. The bass, walleye and northern are all biting well. This should continue as long as the stable weather continues. Walleyes are located in 22-24 ft of water off main lake points. They are aggressively hitting jigging Rapala’s or ¼ oz Echo tails. Fire Tiger and...
-
6/25/2015 8:55:00 PMDespite it being the beginning of summer (so says the calendar), weather conditions have not been very summer like. Constantly changing weather, wind direction and some cold nights (one morning launched at 38 degrees) have made coming up with any type of productive pattern difficult. Musky: Good-Very good. Best in afternoons and ...
-
6/25/2015 8:50:00 PMSteve Suman The forecasts state (repeatedly) chances of rain and thunderstorms at 30-40 percent – which is 60 to 70 percent against rain and thunderstorms. Go with the odds! “We will endure what we receive,” says Pat at Happy Hooker, “but a week of stable weather would improve fishing! “Muskies are ne...

-
6/17/2015 10:50:00 PMFishing on Delavan Lake has been outstanding. Most of the fish have moved to the outside weed line giving anglers the opportunity to fish without dealing with the green slimy weeds. The fishing pressure has been a bit below average as well. Northern pike are being caught while slowly back trolling medium suckers in 17-19 ft of water.&n...
-
6/17/2015 10:50:00 PMFishing on Lake Geneva has been fantastic. Both largemouth and smallmouth bass are in the shallows and biting aggressively. When you include the pan fish, it has been fairly common to catch over 100 fish in a 4 hour trip. This is the time of year where going through 10 dozen nightcrawlers in a trip occurs frequently. Smallmouth b...

6/17/2015 10:50:00 PMSteve Suman This year, June 21 is both Father’s Day and the summer solstice – the day of the year providing the most sunlight. Forecasts show another wet week, but rain or shine this Sunday, show dad a good time! “Musky anglers should fish break and weed edges out to 10 feet with bucktails, topwaters, crankbaits, and gliders,&rd...

6/11/2015 12:50:00 PMSteve Suman Following forecast “issues” the past two weeks, it appears this week the prognosticators covered all their bases! Let’s hope they are correct on the good predictions and (again) wrong on the remainder! “Warmer weather and a full moon improved fishing,” says Pat at Happy Hooker. “Fish muskies a...

6/11/2015 12:45:00 PMBay Lake Charters out of Algoma, Wisconsin is happy to report some good early action for salmon and trout. In the past few days we have been able to work depths of 80 to 200 feet of water with success landing some large kings pushing that 20 pound mark, along with some rainbow trout and lake trout. Being successful early in the seas...

6/3/2015 4:45:00 PMSteve Suman This week’s forecast predicts moderate temperatures, though far too many chances for rain showers. Do not let a chance of getting wet stop you from enjoying any and all outdoor recreation the North Woods offers! This weekend, June 6-7, is “Free Fishing and Fun Weekend” and the DNR waives fishing licenses, trail passe...
-
6/3/2015 4:40:00 PMThe weather patterns remain a constant battle. The best bite on the lake is Northern Pike and largemouth bass. The shallow bite is still the way to go. The boat traffic on the warm days is increasing by the day. The best day last week was Thursday and there were in excess of 150 boats on the water. The key to fishing r...
-
6/3/2015 4:40:00 PMThe weather remains inconsistent so there hasn’t been much of a warm up in the water temperatures. The fishing is above average for these temps, but we’re still waiting for the great improvement to occur. The water temperature is hovering between 55 and 60 depending on location. Some smallmouth bass are starting to spa...
