Fishing Report

A slight chance of rain before 4pm, then snow likely, possibly mixed with rain. Increasing clouds, with a high near 44. Breezy, with a southeast wind 9 to 18 mph, with gusts as high as 29 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Little or no snow accumulation expected.
Nothing major to report fishing wise. Creeks remain clear to stained with good spring water temperatures. A little chillier than the past week, but still solid.
Olives and spring stoneflies are making appearances, seemingly randomly… Subsurface fishing is the ticket. Scuds, leeches, flashy nymphs and caddis larvae are all doing well right now.

Sunny, with a high near 42. North wind 9 to 11 mph, with gusts as high as 23 mph.
Creeks are clear to slightly stained overall. Temperatures in the mid 40s to higher 40s.
The rains yesterday were light to just a mist in most of our area, we were spared the heavier rains. The mornings the next couple of days will be chilly. No need to get out there early.
We’re seeing some olives and spring stones on the surface while the black midges are dwindling in numbers. The hatches are in the later afternoon when water temperatures are pushing 50 degrees.
Subsurface fishing has been the most effective with scuds, and flashy nymphs working quite well. The leech and small streamer bite continues to be solid with fish eating them if they are dead drifted or just twitched being preferred over fast movement.

A 20 percent chance of rain before 9am. Mostly sunny, with a high near 78. Breezy, with a southwest wind 9 to 18 mph, with gusts as high as 28 mph.
We received about 1/4 of an inch of rain last night which was almost fully absorbed into the ground! This is much needed rainfall, and we are supposed to get a bit more over the next couple of days.
Creeks are clear to slightly stained overall. Water temperatures are in the mid 40s. We are seeing some olives and spring stoneflies in the afternoons area wide. With the high winds, if you can not tuck into a valley, a leech or scud will work just fine to catch fish all day long.

Mostly sunny, with a high near 54. West wind 5 to 9 mph, with gusts as high as 18 mph.
Things are starting to wake up. Reports of olives and spring stones came in yesterday, and with the warming weather, we expect that to continue.
Creeks are mostly clear and low with some still slightly stained. Temperatures are in the mid 40s right now.
Remember April 1st you need to renew your Wisconsin fishing license!

Sunny, with a high near 48. Northwest wind 5 to 9 mph.
Creeks are clear to stained with temperatures in the low 40s.
Nothing major weather wise. Trout seem to have transitioned into springtime well and are feeding in the runs, seams, and even riffles starting later in the morning.
We are still not seeing any major surface activity with most fish being caught subsurface on scuds and larger nymphs.

TodayMostly cloudy through mid morning, then gradual clearing, with a high near 46. Breezy, with a northwest wind 11 to 17 mph, with gusts as high as 28 mph.
Creeks are clear to slightly stained with temperatures in the low to mid 40s. Nothing major going on out there with some sparse blue winged olive hatches and good subsurface activity on scuds, thicker bodied bugs like caddis pupae, and leeches.
The week ahead will be a bit overcast which will help the fishing as our water remains low and clear.

A slight chance of showers between 4pm and 5pm. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 48. Breezy, with a southwest wind 9 to 16 mph, with gusts as high as 32 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%.
With the melting snow hitting the creeks, fishing is all about managing the melt. The problem is cold water entering the system from snowmelt. Things aren’t too muddy out there as the majority of creeks are in good, fishable shape. But once the cold water hits, things shut down rapidly. Remember to use your thermometer and watch for temperature drops in the afternoon.
Cloudy days like today help to keep the sun from melting things too quickly!
Focus on fishing scuds, caddis larvae/pupae, and flashier bugs in the stained water. Midges and thin bodied bugs subsurface in the clearer water. Hatches remain sparse, with a few sightings of blue winged olives.

Sunny, with a high near 37. Northwest wind 9 to 13 mph, with gusts as high as 23 mph.
We received a bit of rain, plus about 1-2 inches of snow area wide yesterday. Things are a bit messy on the roads this morning. Be very careful if you are driving.
Fishing will be ok throughout the next couple of days until this snow starts to melt. Once the melt hits the water and cools it down, fishing will slow down or shut off completely. Make sure to use your thermometer.
If it will muddy things up is still up in the air. Since the ground has been so dry, we are hoping that most of the slow melting snow will soak in and not make things muddy. If it warms up too quickly, then we will have iced chocolate.
Watch here and on social media for updates on conditions!

Snow, possibly mixed with rain and sleet, becoming all snow after 4pm. The snow could be heavy at times. Some thunder is also possible. Widespread blowing snow, mainly between 3pm and 5pm. Steady temperature around 34. Breezy, with a north wind around 22 mph, with gusts as high as 37 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Total daytime snow and sleet accumulation of 1 to 3 inches possible.
Ugly weather today. We’re not expecting things to stay messy for too long.
The fishing can be pretty good out there with the warmer early season we have. Guides are available the next few days and into early next week. Call the shop to booK!

Mostly cloudy, with a high near 60. Breezy, with an east wind 7 to 16 mph.
Decent conditions today, but it is blowing in a one day storm tomorrow.
Creeks are clear and low with temperatures in the low to mid 40s area wide.
Hatches remain sparse, although we have seen a few more olives on the sunnier and calmer days.
The best fishing remains subsurface on scuds, leeches, and bright flashy things.
