Looking to take a kid fishing and was wondering where I should look for fishing lake nebagamon. Just looking to get a child hooked on fishing. I would also consider going to another local lake if someone knows something.

Thanks

Apparently no one is fishing it. Usually the guys who frequent this board are fairly open. I usually fish Minnesuing (about 10 miles southwest of Neb.) but haven't recently in the winter. Nebagamon is a better lake anyways. Do you have a sled/4wheeler/car or are you on foot? If you have a smartphone and are willing to spend $10.00 the Navionics app is really good. If you go down the Dairy Queen road off Highway B you come out on the public beach. Using that as a reference point go to your left and the bank seems to drop off quicker than to the right. You could head ESE a bit across the lake and it looks like a nice point to try. Heading south the lake kind of necks down with a nice looking point on the eastern side. Otherwise, look for the "ice villages". They're usually on fish. Nebagamon has multiple species: Walleyes, northerns, crappies, sunfish, bass, perch. There isn't a bait store in town but if you're going through Superior, stop at the Bait Box and they might have some solid information. If you're coming up 53 from Eau Claire, try stopping at the Mercantile in Solon Springs. They have bait and might have recent news. Good luck.

Hows everyone doing?  I have been fishing as much as I can, but not doing a great job sharing info.  Fish are defin getting into patterns, especially the vulnerable gills n craps.  One must be careful not to pick on these fish if you want to help contribute to future success of your respective waters.  Live bait and gulp have been doing good fior us so far this season.  Water temps are climbing and before you know it we will be in our summer "dog days"  good luck out there...

I'm heading to Nebagamon this weekend.  I usually have good luck in 6 ft. This time of year.  Jarrid, PM me if you have better info to share.

That's a great starting point.  We did okay on a guide trip there last weekend.  Big fish was 23" (obviously released).  Remember let em go let em grow.  These lakes could use a boost with some help from responsible anglers not keeping all the nice breeding walleyes... or gills/craps for that matter.  good luck

Took a Saturday off of hauling the boat to area waters and decided to camp out with friends and do some shore fishing.  Camped on the Croix Flowage and had a lot of fun catching a bunch of pannies.  Nothing big, anyone that know this lake, knows it has a lot of small gills/crappies.  Once in a while we would get a better fish, but we let em go to help contribute to the (hopefully) future success.  Many people were fishing, and did notice many liked to keep fish.  I did not keep any, but a couple of people we were camping with kept enough for a small fish fry.  I was hoping to catch some smallies and pike but settled for the gillz.  The highlight was catching a bunch of crappies after dark with minnows under floats (what a blast).

Area reports are coming in pretty slow, we are seeing fish, but success is pending on time put in on the water.  Best catches have been the gill bites.  However, smallies, largies, pike and the rest have been cooperating as well.  It seems as though the summer pattern is taking over meaning the best bites are at sun up and un down.  And during the week (less recreational boating traffic).  Look for the coming hot days to dwindle down most successful trips, however, we will still keep our finger on the pulse of the NW WI pristine fishing waters of Douglas Cty.  See ya on the water....

Been really quiet around here lately.  I apologize that I have not been getting my normal posts up but we were having difficulties adapting to the new FM/HSO upgrades.  Now that we have that figured out, I will again start to engage in the forums, and in particular this one for sure.  So how is fishing been for you guys this open water season.  We have again had a banner year.  Looking forward to the hunting season remainder and then the hard water season!!

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
