my eyes were so bad driving at night I had to stop and get out to read the signs. My wife dragged me in. Piece of cake, had both eyes done. Took distance on choice, glasses to read only, cheapies...

My yearly to ARK from WI was a bust because of weather. First two weeks fine, 2nd two weeks bad weather. Did well on Bragg Lake, crappie - 10 inch avg and LM Bass. Gurdon Pond was drained 3 yrs...

Heading to Arkansas for the month of February. Look out crappies.

All the fish I have caught so far have not had eggs or milt. Has anyone else experienced this. Also a total lack of crappie beds, and gills, might be a little early for them. I have fished 6...

Can't beat fly fishing for producing results.

I first saw this type fishing when I visited ARK the first time. Doesnt seem very exciting to me and reminds me of running a trap line. It deffinetly is meat hunting and not sport.

Will we ever have summer and fishable weather this year? Crappies not active on lakes. Caught them in channels and very shallow back water. Lakes still very cold.

Langlade cty & Forest cty doing very well on crappie and bluegills. I haven't kept any of the gills because they are full of eggs and havent been on the beds yet. I dont fish beds.

Up North after May, most people don't keep crappies they get mushy/soft.

I have a 15 yr old Skookum Steelheader white water cataraft and get as much use out of it as my boat. Can't beat it. Took it out west with camping gear and traveled a 100 miles on the Big Horn...

When will the rotten weather improve? Its going to be a quick short summer at this rate.

Langlade county, Vilas and Forest. In shallow. 5/28 today. This is the week, big problem is the crummy weather. Yesterday winds, today cold/drizzle - tomorrow hopefully a nice day. Guys telling...

At last crappie are starting to come into the shallows. Did very well on slabs on Moose Lake, Langlade county and Found Lake, Vilas. Lots of eggs, soft but secure yet. The problem isn't crappies,...

I will say the "white" seem softer than "black", but then the water they are caught in may make a difference. Here in the north, after June all crappie get soft and very few people keep them after...

Can't beat week day fishing, since my retirement I to only fish week days. No weekend madness.

Water in N/Central Wi lakes very cold. No fish seen in shallows. Went into a channel between lakes and did very well on Bluegill's and Crappies throwing a size 16 scud against the bank in about 6...

It depends on the tyer. Some stay together and some don't. What I do after receiving flies is go over the thread with head cement. Also some fish are hard on flies, Bluegills are one, Crappies OK....

This summer crappie and gill fishing has been and continues to be outstanding in Oneida & Langlade Cty lakes. I don't keep crappie after Mem/day because they get soft. During May, caught lots of...

Try flyfishing for c rappie, its a blast.

As soon as ice out, I peg to the bank for perch with a small beadhead scud. Perch spawn under the ice and often times as soon as ice out they are along the shorebanks still with eggs in them. ...

Very nice casting, esp with the spey rod which is always fun to use, I use mine for steelies and salmon. I use a 4 wgt rod with wf5f line when doing most of my warm water fishing. I find bdheads...

Ice out is around mid april and I get out as soon as ice leaves. Fish eat all year around. Small size 12 scuds etc. work well. Try different colors in weedy areas 6 ft or less.

Good ice in N/Wi, gills doing well 8-12 ft of water on waxies.

We have good ice on most lakes north of Hwy 29.

I fly fish for everything expect walleyes, both fresh & saltwater. You will find that if you stay at it you will catch more fish than any other method. I carry a hundred dollar bill in my wallet...

Never heard of it. WF (wgtfwdfloating) is a good choice. I put on line one wgt heavier than the rod is rated for, makes easier casting. I purchase all my line for 9.50, 2nds from...

Been catching alot of nice sized crappie and bluegill in the last cpl wks. Seems to be picking up with the changing weather. Edges of weed beds in 4-6 ft of water.

Weather permitting, ha-ha, the bite has been good in the evening at sundown stripping a flie fast just below the surface in around 8 ft of water around Langlade. I don't keep crappie now because...

Never caught or ate a redear (shellcracker) untilI fished in ARK. Taste isn't any different than a Bluegill to me.

Crappie only 12+, and Bluegills 8+. I never keep, limits only enough for 2 for a cpl meals.
