    The 1998 was a truly unique season.  For starters, there was great concern about ice conditions leading up to the season.  From some of the other newspaper articles that I’ve read, it appears there was even outside pressure to cancel the season.  The 2018 spearing season marks the 11th season that I have worked for the DNR...

    Today we highlight the season of 40 years ago (1978).  For starters, the 1978 season only included a fishery on Lake Winnebago.  Water clarity coming into the season was good (average 14’ of clarity) and ice conditions allowed for safe travel. Thus, spearers were anxiously awaiting the season getting started. However, the largest sn...

Walleye and pike have been fairly active with some pretty decent ones being caught. Most of the panfish are being caught by jigging in shallow water with tear-drop style jigs.&nbs...
