Chequamegon Bay Fishing Report

Sorry for the silence…  It’s been a couple of weeks since we posted a report, but it wasn’t because of a lack of fish biting.  I checked in with the guys after last weekend, and there’s certainly plenty of things going on to keep ice anglers busy in northern Wisconsin.  The inland game fish season…

March has arrived.  How did that happen!?  A big blast of snow that hit northern Wisconsin last weekend definitely changed things things up in regard to travel and ice conditions on our lakes.  Some areas received around 2′ of white stuff over the course of the week, and this is as much snow as I’ve seen…

If you've been following our latest reports, not a whole lot has changed over the past week in regard to fishing and ice conditions.  A good shot of snow is hitting northern Wisconsin as I write this however, and some significant accumulations may pile up in some areas.  That's welcome news for anyone interested in the…

The days are getting noticeably longer, and it looks like we’re in for a bit of a warm up this coming weekend.  You’re not going to get any complaints here as we’ve been locked into sub zero and single digit temperatures for quite awhile now.  The mid winter grind has been real over the last…

What was setting up as the first really good ice conditions we’ve had around the Apostle Islands in several years changed in a hurry last week when warm temps and strong northeast winds broke up much of the ice that had been made.  Such is life on Lake Superior, and another good reminder of how quickly…

A much needed and deserved warm up that moved in last week resulted in a strong bite on the Hayward area lakes and Chequamegon Bay.  Before temperatures dropped again over the weekend, Josh Teigen and Aron Kastern had some really productive days, and our hard water season continues to be a good one.  Although we…

Happy New Year everyone!  Remember when the term "Polar Vortex" was included with every weather forecast back in 2013?  Well, I'm pretty sure the weather we've had over the past couple of weeks qualifies…  It's been downright frigid in the mid-west and especially in northern Wisconsin.  This crazy stretch of sub zero weather has been…

Time to get back to work!  After putting the boat away in November, spending some time in the deer woods, and attending a few of the annual ice fishing shows, our weekly fishing reports have returned.  As they have in the past, Josh Teigen and Aron Kastern will be providing us with information regarding ice…

Hard to believe, but we've arrived at our final days of the open water season.  I always spend the last week of October with friends and family.  My brother in law Joe Weiss (Maple Grove, MN) along with his brother Chris (Eagan, MN) were first up.  The weather forecast wasn't exactly what you'd like to…
