wolf river at fremont

anyone take a look sunday afternoon at the boat landing?

Should be fishable by next week with the warm temps and rain. I will be there as soon as it opens. Winneconne has been open for some time, probably wouldn't be a bad idea to try that out, just watch for the icebergs when poygan starts breaking up.

What's the story on the river guys? White bass done? Catfish in? I will be in the area this weekend and am just looking for an update. Thanks.

I'll be at Red Banks in a couple weeks with family. I'm green to the area but can usually get into whatever species I'm chasing. Question is, what to chase? Any pointers would help.

River is full of fish for the most part right now. Walleyes, lg/sm Bass, Whities, Sheepshead, and catfish are all popping pretty much. As long as you are out of the speed zones, it should be enjoyable. River is usually filled with strictly boaters on the weekends so I head to the big lake during that time. Good Luck, hope you locate some fish.

Thanks Gatorbait,

If I make it down to Poygan, is there pike or musky that are easily catchable? How long a drive is it from Red Banks to there in a boat?

I know there are good numbers of pike in Poygan and alot of pigs. I've never targeted them in summer, simply due to this lake producing more walleye action than anything. Not much structure, most pike just roam in the sand bowl. So just drifting and casting would be a good way to try for them. Trolling for eyes we'll pick a few up here and there.

I know there are muskies in the "System". As for numbers, Butte Des Mortes was netted last year by the DNR and I know there was a large number of muskies in the net. It blew my mind. Muskies aren't targeted around here as heavily as up north so you don't hear much about them. So they are there for sure, just a matter of targetting them.

You are prolly looking at a good 30min run from Red Banks. Weekend ride you can prolly double that due to the large no wake zones and traffic. Not sure if you are bringing your own rig or renting, but if you can trailer and want to hit poygan minus the long ride, you can take Hwy H south from Fremont and put in at Indian Point just east of Tustin. Just a suggestion.

I may just do that. The nephew has a new musky rig he needs to break in!
