Black, minority Trump supporters censored by Gannett, other media at 2020 RNC Convention. Expect the same as Milwaukee hosts 2024 RNC Convention. Look back four years Wisconsin, to compare and contrast Gannett’s corrupt coverage of the 2020 Republican and Democratic National Conventions to know what to expect July 15-18 when the nation’s eyes rest on Milwaukee, home of the 2024 RNC convention.  The DNC will showcase its conventi...

    This past week fishing has improved dramatically.  The fish are starting to go into their early summer patterns and the weather is also starting to act like early summer.  The largemouth bass are in the shallows and can be easily caught on either artificial lures or live nightcrawlers.  The best depth is in the 5-6 ft. range around ...

    Steve Suman   The North Woods is enjoying some wonderful spring weather, though warmer temperatures are more to the liking of some people. This week, highs are in the low to mid-70s, lows in the 40s, and most days (though not all) have some sunshine ‑ near perfect for just about any recreational activity. Get out and take advantage!   ...

    Winter aromatherapy DENNY MURAWSKA On the most bitter days of cold, I watch birds at my feeder and cannot help but feel pity for them. No warm beds to return home to, no respite from the numbing winds. They carry on with what appears to be total normalcy. I learned long ago that a number of grouse species thrive mostly on the needles of conifer...

    Six Ugly Flies JERRY KIESOW Six ugly flies. Will they catch fish? We’ll find out this spring. While at my fly-tying work space  recently a thought came to me. “What if I used the odds and ends around me to create some flies of my own design? Who knows? They might catch some fish.” I started this venture with a simple ...

The forecast indicates sunshine and 74 degrees Friday, then showers possible through the Memorial Day weekend, with highs in the mid to upper 70s.

    Steve Suman   Spring weather this year is truly a “If it is not to your liking, just wait a bit” situation. The shift from winter seemed to go straight to summer heat! This week’s forecast predicts somewhat cooler temperatures, however, with chances for showers and storms. Go about your plans ‑ but keep an eye on the sky! ...

    Opening Day, fishermen found an awesome day, sunny skies and light winds.  The boat ramps were not as busy as in past years. The water temp is approximately 5 degrees colder than last year.  Fishing should be improving as the water warms and the bass become closer to spawning.  The best action was small mouth bass.  The fish th...

    Opening Day has arrived.  With the number of boats at the boat launch, all the other lakes in Walworth County must have seen very light boat traffic.  Boat trailers were being parked all the way to South Shore drive.  The best action continues to be the pan fish.  The bluegills are biting in the shallow water about 3-4 feet.&nbs...

    Steve Suman Monday started this week with rain and a thunderstorm that delivered golf-ball size hail to the Hayward area. The forecast indicates sunshine and thunderstorms intermixed through the week. Look for warm to very warm temperatures from mid to late week, nearing 90 degrees Thursday. THAT should warm the water and get the fish “doing...
