Will have some free time this weekend while in the La Crosse area and thought I would fish off the barge. Does anyone know if it is still open and if there is a number to call for pick up or how to get there? Also, do they sell bait and tackle on the barge?
Thanks in advance.
Here is the site for the one in Genoa- http://www.clementsfishing.com
I can’t find the one for Dresbach. If Blue Fleck was around he could give us the answer.
I will try to make a road trip over that way before the weekend and check to see if it is open.
Call 895-2000. They should have all the info you are looking for. 
Area code 507
Thanks Blue 
dont know anything about bait and tackle on the barge, but i would strongly recomend clements fishing barge in genoa wisconsin. Personally, i think the dresbach barge is on the wrong side of the river! I have never caught much on that side and i never see many people over there either. Clements barge has jigs, hooks, sinkers, pretty much anything you need- except the minnows. You can by minnows at Captain Hook’s fishing tackle store on your way into town. It is the first right of genoa and it goes back to the east. You wont miss the building. it is not far from a gas station..if you cant find the captain hooks place, get bait at the gas station. What makes this barge better yet, it has food, coffee and cold drink, all right there! it even has a porter potty! Also, this barge is positioned just north of a good windam and last time we were there (Saturday in boat) guys were slaying the saugers on 3 ways just above it.
I have never been to the dresbach one, but i would go to genoa. It would be worth your extra 30 minutes driving time. Oh yeah, the people are nice too!
Thanks everyone. I appreciate the responce and information.
