Northern Wisconsin Buzz Bite Report 6-6-2021

Well the water temperatures are just on the rise over here in Northern Wisconsin. I have been finding temps in the high sixties and low seventies on most lakes.

Even with the really warm temps we have had over the past few days the walleye fishing has continued to be very consistent.

It has been all about finding weed growth on clearwater lakes. Generally the best depths have been in sixteen to seventeen feet of water.

Across most of Northern Wisconsin we have had a Mayfly hatch going so leeches under slip bobbers has been by far our best presentation.

Smallmouth bass are all up in the shallows in less than seven feet of water on most lakes and are still spawning up on beds. I saw a lot of females moving into spawn this week, but some of those earlier spawning fish should be wrapping up soon.

Crappies are in post-spawn mode right now. I don’t even know if a lot of them spawn this year because we’re catching them with a lot of eggs in them still.

Most of the crappies we are catching have been in about five to seven feet of water in the weeds. Casting small jigs with crappie tubes or using slip bobbers and crappie minnows has produced most of our fish.

Bluegills have started to make their way onto beds in the shallows.

Northern pike can be found on the weed lines in that eight to fifteen feet of water. Casting crank baits, spinnerbaits, or live minnows under a float will all produce fish.

If you guys are looking to get out and catch some fish you can reach me through my website or through my cell.

Good luck out there on the water!

Like most of you reading this, I love to fish, plain and simple. Born in Hayward, WI, I've been blessed with many opportunities that have led me to a career on the water. As is the case with most kids, I was introduced to fishing by my father, a retired educator and coach who always made sure a trip to Canada or the Boundary Waters was scheduled at the end of every school year. My grandmother Doris was also instrumental in encouraging my passion and interest for all things fishing. You see, Doris fished, and she loved to eat what she caught. Bluegills were of special interest to Doris, and some of my fondest and earliest memories on the water were spent with her below the Nelson Lake dam. We always cleaned what we caught after an obligatory stop at West’s Dairy for the best ice cream cone ever made. In 2013, the decision was made to begin guiding full time and devote all energy to my career on the water. I became a credentialed U.S. Coast Guard Charter Captain and certified to guide on waters of the Great Lakes that I've fished for many years. This includes Chequamegon Bay and the St. Louis River-Superior Harbor in addition to the inland lakes I've been guiding on since 1992. The continued support from my family, friends, and faithful customers has made it possible for me to pursue my passion. You've all helped me in so many ways. There aren’t enough words to express how I appreciate having you in my corner. The relationships I've made on the water are priceless, and I don’t take any of you for granted.
