Wisconsin Fishing Reports & Outdoor Report for June 14, 2018

[Rick]

[EDITOR'S ADVISORY: This is an abbreviated report this week due to staff out on annual leave.]With the equinox not just a week away, summer is moving into full swing with visitors steaming into parks and campgrounds filling up. Pattison State Park had over 1,100 vehicles come through last weekend with many attracted by high flows over the waterfalls.The hexagenia mayfly hatch has begun, makes for great fly fishing on central Wisconsin streams. Walleye fishing on the Winnebago System has been very good, with many anglers catching limits of 15-20 inch fish and some anglers are starting to target and catch yellow perch. Anglers are having the best luck trolling in the mud flats on Lake Winnebago. Lakes Poygan, Winneconne and Butte des Morts are also producing fish for anglers through a variety of presentations. Fewer anglers were out on the Menominee, Peshtigo and Oconto river this past week in part due to the cooler air temperatures and high wind. Ssome anglers were still having successful trips catching northern pike, smallmouth bass, walleye, catfish, crappie and rock bass. A couple anglers reported catching a musky at the mouth of the Peshtigo River.
