Well,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Al, welcome to the Forum. Are you from WI. or are you going fishing in WI. For what it is worth, the fishing is picking up on the Miss. Lake MIch. is not doing much. There, you have both sides covered. You will get more replies if you fill in your location on your profile page.

You need to narrow it down Al. Your location. What you are fishing for, wtc.

I fish in west central Wisconsin, and up to the Hayward Lakes area. Any fishing reports for those areas? I’m looking to hit the Chippewa Flowage in a couple weeks for walleyes. Any advice would be appreciated.

Welcome to the Forum, CC, That area could be good, a little later, might be better, it depends on the water temp. Good Luck!

Thanks Flyguy. Was up at Round Lake this past weekend, very slow and windy. Water temp 68. Gonna either head to the CF, or possibly to MN on Winnie for some fall fishing. Can’t wait.

Won’t be too long and the fall run of walleyes and white bass should be starting on the Wolf River. The fall run is very good and very productive but the fish are mostly a Little smaller males. Still nice eating size. Bluegill, perch, bass and crappies should be biting on most all the smaller lakes. Just comming into the best time of year for northern and musky. You can always find great fishing in Wisconsin. Especially Sept and Oct...

Solid advice. You can catch white bass on the Wolf or Fox River. Sometimes more than you want. Not sure if WI limits those or not. I think walleye luck is better on the Wolf. As a former WI fisherman, a Wolf River rig with a swivel works great on the rivers. Musky fishing on the northern lakes can be really good in the fall. Try cold, gray, windy days. Dress for it and be prepared to have a sore arm but you may get that one big strike. A musky Rapala or a spinner with a tail, a frog or mouse will work. Just my experience from way back when.

The Fox and Wolf are both very good and will stay good until ice-up. No limit on white bass on either river. Nice thing about fall fishing is that you have a lot less boaters on the water.

True. Bridge fishing in Winneconne, Fremont, etc, can be shoulder to shoulder, if they allow that at all with the virus. The boaters can bottle up near the bridges sometimes when the run is really strong but people seem to make room for each other.
