OK, here’s what I have from my sources. The Winneconne bridge has seen some nice size females caught at night but very few males at this time. The day bite has been tough. In Fremont, the area below Hahn-A-Lula has produced some fish as has the are just above Lake Poygan. There have also been some good days of fishing “between the bridges” and up stream towards Gills. With the fish on the move a spot can be good one day and quiet the next, even with stable weather. In New London the day bite has been hit or miss for most. Night fishing has been pretty good for those out with the rise in water levels and warm up. Keep in touch with the water level and temperature information linked on my Outdoors page in Wolf River Country.Com for current readings.

There is open water throughout the system and quite a few anglers out, some of who are catching walleye. Water levels are just below average for this time of year but should rise with the recent rains. The snow we got up north should continue to feed the system and I expect to see action starting to get better with the predicted warm up of next week. I’ll get out this week and publish some fresh pictures.

The river is open to boat traffic from Gills to Lake Poygan and some anglers have reported that they caught a limit of fish in the lower part of the river. There is still PLENTY of ice around so be very careful when traveling or anchoring. The New London area shouldn’t be too long behind. I’ll have more each week.

Well the open water season has started on the Wisconsin and Fox River at DePere. The Rock had a few boats out but is pretty much still full of ice. There’s high water there also. When the river does open, veteran Rock River anglers are figuring on total no wake rules again. That puts a premium on having numerous spots near the boat launch you choose to use. On the Wisconsin walleye and sauger are being caught below the Dells and probably every dam to the north. From what I’ve heard and read about the Fox there have been lots of walleye biting at DePere. Clear water and heavy daytime boat traffic is making the night bite pretty good for those who like to stay out after dark.
Keep in touch with this and my web site for lots of new stuff in 2008.

This boat goes to the dealer next week. It’s a great opportunity to save a few thousand dollars on a super all around fishing boat and my last Triton as I will be sponsored by Yar Craft starting this year. It gets sold as a new boat, and has lots of features. Last chance.

I sat around the bait shop yesterday and saw lots of anglers coming in for minnows. Today on a trip out to Northwoods Sausage, I saw lots of box tip ups and anglers on most of the well known spots. Access looks ok for now but expect ice conditions to change quickly with the sunshine and warmer temperatures. Look for video updates on the my web site at http://www.wolfrivercountry.com starting next week.

Walleye have been pretty active for the most part. Anglers seem to be catching at least a few each time out and sometimes a limit. There have been quite a few spawners caught and released. The recent rains should just help draw more fish and improve the action.

Well one of my sources just had rotator surgery so reports might be harder to get but from what I’ve heard walleye fishing has been pretty good. Fish are on the move with the current and there have been some nicer ones showing up. Evenings have been the best with the bite continuing after dark some days.
Pan fish action is very good on some days including some nice perch reports from throughout the Winnebago system.

GREAT BOAT! Has done everything from anchor sideways on a shallow sand bar to fish the bay of Green Bay. The interior is fantastic and there is a TON of room. I’m including a bunch of Triton gear including life jackets, tournament shirts and hats. Call my toll free number if interested. 888-473-3905

Just a note that with all the snow and a current that is flowing very strong, there are lots of areas of unsafe ice on the river. BE CAREFUL, a couple of snowmobiles went through near Fremont a few days ago and there is some dark areas that are growing.
More soon, keep in touch for ICE BREAKER III info.
