    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...

    Winter birds continue to dominate the birding scene, highlighted by many snowy owls, rough-legged hawks, American tree sparrows, increasing numbers of horned larks in the south, common redpolls, and more. Spring migration is not far off, however, as cranes, geese, and a few other species are typically on the move by the end of the month. Moreover, ...

    It has been another fantastic week here in Central Wisconsin. The fishing has been very good for all species with panfish taking the top spot again for consistent action. 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...
