Wisconsin Fishing Reports

Walleye spawning is varied across the north. Spawning in full swing on some of the larger lakes that have just opened but smaller lakes and the flowages are in post spawn feeding patterns. Crappies are reported to be moving in to the shallower warm water. In the south, some good musky action was reported.

Lake Michigan Fishing

Brown County Wisconsin Fishing Report

On the Fox River in Green Bay, walleye are abundant, including large trophies. Boat and shore anglers were both catching fish; however, success was down from the past couple of weeks. Heavy currents from high water levels and high winds from this past week’s weather have made it difficult for anglers to fish their best techniques especially boat anglers. Jigs and minnows, plastics, crank baits, and zip lures are all catching fish. Night and early morning seem to be the most consistent times for success.

Door County Wisconsin Fishing Report

Anglers fishing for smallmouth bass enjoyed success in the back areas of most of the bays. Tube jigs and jerks baits seemed to be providing most of the action. Walleye action has been good to very good at night, with anglers trolling in 4 to 15 feet of water producing some very nice fish. The Sherwood Point, Henderson Point and Dunlop Reef areas all were producing fish. Crank baits, crawler harnesses and floating Rapalas were all reported as catching nice walleyes. Brown trout action remained good with anglers trolling Lake Michigan from Baileys Harbor as far south as Algoma reporting success in 15 to 20 feet of water. Several anglers fishing for smallmouth bass in colder water were pleasantly surprised by nice browns on the Green Bay sides of the county. The flow of water out of the streams remains good and although I didn’t get any reports of success, there are at least some anglers still fishing the streams for steelhead. Northern pike continued to be taken along the channel in Sturgeon Bay as well as well as out of Sawyer Harbor and Little Sturgeon. Unconfirmed reports say that there are some big northerns coming out of the waters around Washington Island.

Jefferson County Wisconsin Fishing Report

Anglers were catching some nice sized bluegill on the marsh on Rock Lake. A few limits have been taken although most anglers were catching around a dozen or so. Walleye action has still been slow on the Upper Rock and Crawfish rivers, with the best success by the wastewater treatment plant in Watertown. Anglers were catching the walleye on jigs and minnows and a few on twistertails. Most of the fish were just under the size limit but a few keepers were caught.

Kenosha County Wisconsin Fishing Report

Kenosha anglers have been catching good numbers of chinooks in 70 to 90 feet of water. Fish have been hitting spoons and J-plugs in green or silver.

Kenosha County Wisconsin Fishing

Kewaunee County Wisconsin Fishing Report

Steelhead fishing has slowed down considerably this past week out of all tributaries of Lake Michigan. Trolling has picked up some out of Algoma and Kewaunee. Brown trout out of Algoma have been reported in about 12-16 feet, and fish have been caught trolling with Rapalas. Based on angler accounts, the water is a little clear for optimum conditions; however, this next week's conditions may change that for the better. Trolling should continue to pick up if the weather permits it.

Manitowoc County Wisconsin Fishing Report

In Manitowoc, anglers fishing on the north side of the marina's breakwater with spoons or spawn sacs had a slow week with few fish landed. Fishing was slow for anglers fishing with worms while casting spoons produced a couple small northern pike. The Branch River had little to no fishing pressure over the week because of the unfavorable conditions. On the East Twin River anglers had to contend with rain and cold winds; however, it paid off for some anglers as rainbow trout activity was good. Thursday was especially good for anglers fishing the Mishicot Dam. Anglers had most success using large fresh spawn sacs and one fly fishing angler landed a nice brightly colored male rainbow trout weighing in at 5.5 pounds and 26 inches. On the West Twin River water was flowing fast and high making it difficult for anglers to fish close to Shoto Dam. However, early in the week a couple rainbow trout anglers caught a few nice Ganaraska strain rainbows ranging in weight from 5 to 6 pounds. In Two Rivers, few trout and salmon anglers were fishing from the piers or in the harbor. High seas and gusty winds discouraged most boat anglers from trolling Lake Michigan.

Marinette County Wisconsin Fishing Report

The walleye bite has been tremendous, with the mouth of the Menominee River producing many fish both by pier anglers and boaters alike. Trolling with stick baits has been slow but jig heads (1oz green) with twister tails tipped with minnows being worked as you drift has been the rule. A few boats using "Gulp Alive", 4 to 5 inch in a shad color has been out performing anything else out there. They are catching more and bigger fish than the live bait. Boats are now fishing the turn basin and up and around Stephenson Island, having good luck with crawler harnesses, and jigging spoons. Stop by the fence of the fish refuge next to the power house in Peshtigo and observe the many sturgeon there.

Milwaukee Wisconsin Fishing Report

In Milwaukee, shore anglers fishing off McKinley pier have been catching brown trout on crank baits, and at Jones Island anglers have been catching a few browns on shiners and crank baits. Trollers fishing off Milwaukee have been catching a few lake trout and chinooks on flashers and flies.

Oconto County Wisconsin Fishing Report

Fishing success on area waters has been fair. Trout fishing has been slow due to high water levels and colder temperatures.  Oconto Park II is giving up limits of walleyes using crawler harnesses in 6 to 8 feet of water. The occasional brown is also being caught. Water temps at the Iron bridge by the Stiles dam have reached 60 degrees, and the number of sucker you can observe from the bridge can be counted on three hands. Pensaukee had some shore and boat anglers activity. The fishing at the Oconto breakwater has been slow for walleye, but they are catching and releasing some nice smallmouth bass.

Wisconsin Fishing Guides

From cheese to beer to the Green Bay Packers, gorgeous scenery to world-class fishing, and everything in between, there are dozens of reasons to buy timeshare in Wisconsin. A Wisconsin timeshare is a convenient and budget-friendly alternative to renting a hotel room and will ensure that you'll be able to return to your favorite fishing region of this great state every year. As you and your family return again and again your timeshare will begin to feel like a home away from home. These vacation properties are also especially attractive to fishermen because they generally afford much more living space and a higher level of privacy than do other accommodation options. When you buy or rent timeshare, rather than a hotel room, you'll have more room for your equipment, which in turn means more room to spread out and relax. There are timeshares for sale all over Wisconsin. Find the one that's perfect for you!
