Count me in!

Lived in Langlade county for many years and have fished White Clay. Best bet for crappies is to position boat well inside weed bed and cast out past the edge and then slowly bring it in to the weed...

After using bear spray in an actual charge I think it is about the best alternative. Bear ran right into a tree and got up to stumble away. You don't have time or usually the accuracy to use a...

Anybody interested in getting Wisconsin involved in the Crappie.com virtual tournament if they get it going? Info on the main crappie forum. Would be nice if we focused on lakes that allow motor...

Perch in northern Wisconsin are typically less rounded bodied than what you folks see down south say like in Oklahoma where I have also fished. They also tend to be somewhat longer though and...
