Where do you fish? 9 Replies

I'm up at Castle Rock Flowage.... Good Stripped bass and a lot of Crappie and Walleye. A lot of fun and never a time where I haven't caught something. It's right by Petenwell Lake and only 30 min. North of the Wisconsin Dells.

Comment by Chuck Vilas on November 26, 2010 at 2:31pm: Any ice reports yet? I am itching to go out. So far I hear there is up to two inches in northern wisconsin, but not enough to walk out on around here.

For your viewing enjoyment, I attached my biggest pike of last winter: out of Lake Kegonsa.

Comment by Tom Rotzoll on December 13, 2009 at 2:21pm: The ice is here. There are some hardcore guys on madison's triangle. Stoughton ditches is a great place to fish during the winter.

Comment by Brett Watkins on May 23, 2009 at 9:29pm: Hello, my name is Brett and live in Trevor, WI, by Silver Lake outside of Kenosha, WI. I am from NC originally and am trying to find some fishing buddys and/or some economically/fair priced guides for good sport fishing on any lake in WI. I would love to find some trout, but hear it is rare here. I love fishing, so any game fish is great for me. If you, or if you know someone who fits this request, please email me at bwtmf1967@yahoo.com to see what we can put together. Thanks everyone.

Comment by SHADOW THE MUSKY MASTER on May 19, 2009 at 6:51am: Caleb,

We started the season hunting for some walleyes, caught a few but the bite wasn't really on, we started fishing for muskies at around 4 am opening day and didn't leave until 9 pm, my body has never felt so worn out ever. Everyone in my fishing circle caught one opening day, it took me 3 days before I got one and then it was almost a fish everyday or every other day. I don't want to jinx it but last year I caught 16 fish all season, this year I have 8 in the month of May all from shore. Lets hope it keeps up.

Comment by SHADOW THE MUSKY MASTER on May 19, 2009 at 6:48am: I just got off a 4 day drought, we moved at least 10 fish yesterday and got a total of 3 to commit long enough to get them in the net. Here is the one I got yesterday to break the drought.

Comment by SHADOW THE MUSKY MASTER on May 1, 2009 at 9:46pm: Lol I am putting in the first cast at midnight tonight, then I am gonna fish until I can't stand anymore or keep my eyes open.

Comment by Rippn-Lips Tackle Company on April 26, 2009 at 8:14pm: Welcome Brett! Email me as well if you need someone to fish with. I am in West Bend, WI. My main species I fish for is Walleye.
