Wisconsin Fishing Reports

Getting a guide is definitely an advantage to not have to learn new water makes fishing so much more enjoyable

August is not the best month to fish Green Lake. Better in June or September.

Prepare for an amazing Guide and an amazing fishing experience. John is very interesting. Pay great attention to his adventures. You won't meet many like him. Don't miss the opportunity.

Lake Geneva is a large body of water with great depth and submerged structure. You need an experienced guide to navigate these waters for the first time.

dress warm - it can get cool on the lake - windy - won't be any sunbathing this trip!

Dress warm and be ready to have a great time! Keep your eye out for the beautiful bald eagles!

Just taking the experience if the fish are biting great and if not remember you're not working

Definitely book a trip with Captain Bobby who is Extremely knowledgeable of the entire lake

Find a charter boat and from talking to others who had been fishing the same day as us, I would recommend going out either early morning (if you can find a sunrise charter out there) or do one that will keep you out til sunset because the fish really seemed to come alive as evening set in.

*** my review was for fishing in Milwaukee. Fishing booker initially was Racine but fishing captain Ken had moved with the fish to Milwaukee.

Book Captain Steve Mortenson. He is friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I learned a wealth of great fishing information from him. Highly recommend him!

Follow the recommendations for dressing for the trip and taking food and supplies. You'll have a great time.

Great restaurants and lodging. Watch the weather forecasts and fishing reports and you should have a Great time.

Water ways and fishing opportunities galore! Green Bay is such a great little town, easy to get around and super friendly people. Affordable places to stay and eat.

I would recommend trying to go earlier if you can due to the inconsistent weather and wind.

We fish the weed beds on the north side of the lake and the drop offs, depending on what we are fishing for. Lots of pike, landed a 36", in 2015.

Bring some bug spray to combat the flies on the boat. They were the only bad part of the trip.

Find the cold water! As soon as we hit below 60 degrees they fish went crazy with hits!

GO OUT ANY TIME THE MONTH OF JUNE, OR UP TO MID JULY TO CATCH "MORE" FISH...

To understand the fishery and the sport go out with Captain Jim. Very knowledgeable!!
