7/9/2013 4:30:00 PMAs of Saturday 6/29, Delavan Lake remains under a slow/no wake order in effect due to the excessive rain. Walworth county received about 11 inches of rain in 2 days. I was able to fish a bit this week dodging the rain drops. The success was limited. The water clarity is poor and there is a lot of floating debris ...

7/9/2013 3:15:00 PMGood morning, here is the local fishing report from Kurt’s Island Sports.We knew it was coming! Wish it wasn’t! The big (hexagenia ) mayflies are hatching! This major hatch-coming to a Northwoods Lake near you- is a killer for the walleye bite on your favorite lake for 3-4 days after it happens. Usually finished by the 2nd-3rd week of J...

7/9/2013 2:15:00 PMNo Bug Hatches Yet – Getting Close By Jeff Winters Hi Folks – I have not seen any big mayfly hatches yet, but they are very close now. I have noticed a few on the surface of some lakes and I can see them coming up on the graph. We are at a day-by-day scenario when it comes to fishing WALLEYES. We are finding most of our wal...

7/9/2013 1:40:00 PMThere has been a long drawn out mayfly hatch but that doesn't seem to be hurting the Panfish or Walleye bite at all. Bluegills are still tight to shore, we are getting them on just about anything that we throw at them. They are pretty spooky and you almost have to hit the wood to get them. Walleye action it still going strong, size is a little on t...

6/26/2013 12:30:00 PMBy Steve Suman Warm temperatures continue, with highs in the 80s until a slight cooling occurs late in the week, and the forecast again includes too many ‘good’ chances for showers. “As we move more into summer, fishing patterns are beginning to change,” says Pat at Happy Hooker. “With most species having completed ...

The largemouth bass are becoming very active with the Jumbo bluegills. Largemouth bass have been actively feeding. They can be caught in Williams Bay or in Trinkes. They are biting on wacky rigged green pumpkin ...

6/24/2013 1:05:00 PMThe boat traffic has been extreme the past week. The word is out that the fish are biting. You need to go early to get a good spot. The fishing has been very good. The best success has been bluegills and crappies. Crappie fishing has been very good for the suspended fish in 12 ft of water about 8 ft down. The best loc...

6/18/2013 4:30:00 PMJune 18 started with 38 degrees, so what’s new? Guess we shouldn’t be surprised, but a cold front with high pressure in the middle of June has backed water temperatures down into the low 60’s again. Temps yo-yo up with the sun in the afternoon, but overall are down for this time of year. Smallmouth Bass: Excellent &nd...

6/18/2013 11:35:00 AMBy Steve Suman Constantly changing weather patterns make it difficult to know what to expect, but the ‘current’ forecast predicts a warm week with (too many) chances for rain. June is peak nesting time for turtles and they are on the move near rivers and wetlands. Watch for them crossing roads, and if safe to do so, move them to the s...

6/17/2013 3:25:00 PMBy Wayne Morgenthaler The backwaters of the Wisconsin River near Gotham are producing good crappie action. They have been biting on pink and white jigs fished during early morning or evening hours. Cloudy days with a little wind are the best. The trout streams are producing nice fish. The smaller streams are clear now and the trout are surfacing t...

6/17/2013 1:30:00 PMBy, Dave Hraychuck Summer is finally here for more than 24 hours...the fish and fishermen are really happy about it! The crappies and bluegills are biting on all area lakes. Small jigs, ice spoons, and small beetle spins tipped with waxies, Gulp Bait, or minnows are producing great catches all over the area. Fishing with Guide Dave Hraychuck, M...

6/17/2013 1:10:00 PMWalleye fishing is picking up, Leeches and Crawlers are the bait of choice right now. Walleye are slipping back to their summer haunts, that's wood in 10 to 18 feet of water in the Phillips Chain. Weedless jigs, Floating Lindy Rigs, or slip bobbers work well for walleye at this time of year. Crappie are moving off the shorelines and are now being ...

6/17/2013 12:00:00 PM“OWO fishing expert Ron Klimcke reports another day of great fishing on the Chippewa Flowage. “The bite was light and we had to move to several spots to catch our limit,” Ron said Saturday. “A jig and minnow was all we used. We caught these fish in in 17 to 21 feet of water.”

6/17/2013 11:50:00 AMDelavan Lake fishing is very good right now. The lake is productive on multiple species. As summer starts to heat up, the lake is getting very busy. Prepare to get to the lake early if you want to get a parking spot as well as a vacant fishing spot. Even though the fishing pressure is high, there are still plenty of good bit...

6/17/2013 11:45:00 AMFishing remains fantastic on Lake Geneva. Most of the fish are located between 10 and 15 ft of water. With the warming water temperature the bait of choice has switched from fat head minnows to nightcrawlers. Smallmouth bass remain on the spawning flats in 12-15 ft of water. Look for the fish by Elgin Club, Knollwood and the Mili...

6/14/2013 3:45:00 PMGreat action for muskies this past week. Most of the action came on twitch baits and bucktails that were worked along current breaks and weed lines in 6 to 12 feet of water.

6/14/2013 12:45:00 PMLots of Good Bites Hi Folks – That long extended cold front held up pretty good, but the bite slowed up towards the end. Water temps dropped to the mid-50’s and fish got very touchy. MUSKY have been very good as the cold front hit. Last Thursday the musky action went through the roof. This continued through the weeken...

6/11/2013 3:40:00 PMWhat looks to have been the last week of unsettled weather for a while...? Fishing success seemed to follow the same up and down, can't seem to get a finger on it pattern that plagued the weathermen. Had some excellent fishing, followed by good fishing, followed by -what just happened? Warmer weather, let's hope things move nicely into summer patt...

6/11/2013 1:45:00 PMBy Steve Suman This week looks to be one of the better ones for this spring, with high temperatures in the upper 70, a few chances for rain, and fog the only ‘white stuff’ in the forecast! “We are nearly a month into open water fishing season,” says Pat at Happy Hooker, “and it is quite a different season. Fishing su...

6/11/2013 10:30:00 AMThe rainy weather finally broke on Monday and the water temps climbed from the low 60's to the mid to upper 60's in a matter of hours. With the warmer water temps the Bluegill, Crappie, and Bass all moved back super shallow and tight to wood. Walleye are scattered from shallow to deep and starting to eat Crawlers and Leeches. I had clients out for...
