I have been fishing the Manitowish Chain for over 10 years now and it is easily one of my favorite bodies of water to fish! The musky fishing is excellent with some very large fish available from opening weekend until season close. In addition, there is good fishing for walleye, smallmouth bass, and panfish also. Factor in the beautiful surroundings and abundant wildlife, and you have a body of water that is tough to beat!
