1/24/2013 9:55:00 AMBy Jim Olsson When you wake up on January 15th the first thought that comes to mind probably doesn't relate to getting your boat out or going fishing in it. Maybe it should, right here in our wonderful state of Wisconsin we have one of the premier Brown trout fisheries in the entire world, The Milwaukee Harbor. Even if you can only hit...

1/22/2013 4:40:00 PMThe propane companies love weeks like this. Bitter cold and below zero temperatures are pushing fisherman into ice shacks to stay warm. The one positive result is we are building ice, and by the sounds of it, we still need that to happen. Two vehicles went through the ice on Red Cedar Lake in the last week. Please use extreme caution still wh...

1/22/2013 4:25:00 PMBy John Luthens The ice was coming on nicely in the area lakes and the pan fish and northern pike were coming up through comfortably deep holes. My jig poles and tip-ups were resting contentedly in a bucket and my portable shanty was happily tucked in a white blanket of snow in my truck bed. Then came freezing rain and the white powdery cov...

1/22/2013 4:15:00 PMBy Professional Guide Kurt Justice Brrrrrrr…. High of 10 below today, real winter! The clipper that moved in late Saturday afternoon shut the playgrounds off for a while. Wind chills in the -30/40 degree range make being outdoors somewhat dangerous right now – though some anglers have gone out. Crappies: Good-Fair. See a...

1/21/2013 12:45:00 PMBy Darrell Pendergrass On at least three or four occasions this winter I’ve found myself out on the ice staring at hard-water holes, the goal of which was to bring home a fish. That is to say, I’ve done a bit of ice-fishing this season. Normally my winter days aren’t spent fishing. Between farm chores – which only seem to ...

1/15/2013 1:05:00 PMThe rain last week knocked out all remaining snow on the local lakes, and with cold temperatures now and forecasted for the next several days, we are really going to make some solid ice. Take caution if you are going to be driving full sized vehicles on the lakes. You never know when you are going to run into a thin spot on the ice, and no fish is...

1/14/2013 4:40:00 PMAnglers have seen mixed results this past week. Many of the lakes in our area are safe to travel and many have vehicle traffic. We could use some snow to make foot travel easier as the bare ice is quite slick. The cold temps predicted for this week will make good ice. The walleye bite was at last lite this past week. Tip ups with med shiners just ...

1/14/2013 11:15:00 AMIt's always a great sight to be able to drive by local lakes and see the small "villages" taking place on the ice. Several more ice shacks made it out on a variety of lakes over the weekend, but I still would say, keep all full sized vehicles off of the lake and stick with ATV's and Snowmobiles for travel on all ice. One just never knows where th...
