Lake Wisconsin, Columbia County (all postings)

jd---if staying at smokey hollow go to the grade on v rite off of c s they got a bait shop & good shore fishin.

Wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of any shore fishing on Lake Wisconsin. Taking the kids camping at Smokey Hollow and was going to try and sneak over to the lake with the kids. Doesn't have to be a prime spot, just looking for somewhere for the kids to catch some fish, boat gets kind of crowded with two little guys casting. Thanks, JD

I hear ya joe. Sad but true. I was just making the comment because your right, most people dont know (or care) about regulations. I've caught a dozen slots in okee this year shore fishing and every time I have someone ask me why I threw it back *SMH* I'll gladly call the dnr if I see anything illegal. I wish their were more people like you and I. In my book, if you don't know the regs then don't fish. Plain and simple.

You would be surprised how many slot fish are kept on this lake. Last saturday morning a boat was trolling with 6 poles and only 1 person in the boat. I pulled next to them to tell him the rules. He said he didnt care so i called dnr.

WENT FISHING YESTERDAY AFTERNOON WITH MY FAMILY. WE FISHED IN 10 - 15 FEET OF WATER ON A REEF. WE CAUGHT 20 BLUEGILLS AND 5 PERCH. CAUGHT A LOT OF 10 - 14.5 INCH WALLEYES. I NEVER KNEW THAT THERE WAS A TON OF STUPID SHEEPHEAD IN THE LAKE. ALSO WENT ON TUESDAY AND CAUGHT 24 BLUEGILLS AND 1 CRAPPIE. A GREAT BLUEGILL, PERCH AND WALLEYE LAKE. WISH THAT THE WALLEYES WERE A FEW INCHES BIGGER! GREAT WEEK TO BE ON THE WATER!

Def not in the slot joe lmao

Nice fish drop shot. How big is that?

Fished at okee bridge from 7a to 9a using crankbaits. Caught one 14.5" sauger in about 10 FOW. Perfect temp to be out after all the hot weather lately. Tight lines!

Jake's biggest walleye

Took those ladies out last night and they just would not believe me that there are no fish up in the trees. I wanted to take a picture of how many Mayflies where in the boat after retrieving lures in the trees. I did say if they opened there mouth in the trees they would get a lot of protein. They were good sports and quiet. Me Too *($&##&#&#^#^#^#).

Nice smallies Chipr! Any chance you wanna smile in your next pics! You should be happy with beautiful fish like that!

Fished today 6 to 10:30. Fished the wind swept shore and caught fish galore. Jig & half crawler was the ticket today. Good fishing, Yarrr

God I love Mondays when the lake is quite and normal. Great Am today Hit the South west shore and found another Mayfly hatch going on I got Smallies and some very nice ones like these, along with a big share of smaller ones. No W/B in the area. Went a trolled for and hour and got 2, 9 in. shorts that was it. Went to Moon Valley area the North Shore and found the Mayfly hatch going there too. This time W/B and Smallies. Catching a bunch on surface lures and it is a blast.

Going to try to take the ladies out tonight and see if the Bass will still be around. Good Luck and Safe keeping's. Look out for those Kids on Jet Skis they all must have bad eye sight for how close they come to ya.
