September 4, 2013 at 5:50 pm #1192971
Been a while since I last fished the Rock. Can someone please give me directions to the launches and GPS coordinates for the hotspots? Looking forward to the fall bite.
September 4, 2013 at 6:41 pm #1192978My son says the best place for me to catch fish is at Pic n Save…..ouch
He likes to say that.
September 4, 2013 at 7:35 pm #1192988Ill be seeing the lake alot now, only because i can see it from where i park to bow hunt got couple nice ones on cam,time to center punch one. Been way too busy of a summer, graduation,soccer camps, got the oldest moved in to college in minnesota.not much fishing done here since ice went out.Sold my boat week ago, so back to the shore line. with water levels on the river, think a jon boat would work best
September 5, 2013 at 10:48 pm #1193220Fishing for walleyes this labor day weekend was very successful. I teamed up with good friend Ryan Hebbe. We targeted a southern WI river and fished nuckle ball jigs with live bait to catch and release these nice walleyes in the photos. All are fish came vertical jigging in eight foot of water with a hard bottom. Water temp was 77 to 80 degrees. If you want to catch fish like these check out the fin-tech website and get the best jigs on the market at http://www.jigfish.com also check out fin-tech Facebook site for more great pictures and techniques to catch fish.
September 19, 2013 at 10:23 pm #1195864Your welcome Dave!
With all the rain we been having who is going to venture out to explore the river this weekend?
September 19, 2013 at 11:54 pm #1195856I wish. Hope to take my son and his buddy and dad for some stunted gill fishing on Pewaukee Lake.
September 20, 2013 at 12:37 am #1195870Planning to hit Waubesa for gills early on Saturday….have been known to trailer over to the Rock on the way home. will see how the days goes.

Your welcome Derek!
Who’s Derek?
I think he is that guy with the used to be new boat that does not get to use it much
September 20, 2013 at 1:00 pm #1195916Maybe we should start a new, on-going thread? Instead of “Where’s Waldo?”, we can call it “Where’s Derek?”, to account for all the sightings.
Answer: In the driveway, sitting in his new boat.
September 20, 2013 at 10:03 pm #1196078lol, good luck to all that’s fishing this weekend. If you see me on the rock you might want to stop and start fishing.
September 21, 2013 at 12:24 am #1196100Hopefully will have more time to fish this fall. Offered a new position at work with less travel. Same great boss and team still.

September 24, 2013 at 10:58 am #1196473Walleye fishing has been slow here in southern WI rivers so if you like to fish and catch fish change it up and target crappies. All my crappies have been coming from the wood, docks or boat slips. Floating a 1/32oz nuckle ball jig and slip bobber under docks and close to wood does the trick most of the time. The key is get in tight. You need to bounce the slip bobber off the structure without getting snagged up to catch these wonderful eating fish.

Nice crappies. I think I know that spot.
LOL
I never take pictures where I catch fish!lolSeptember 25, 2013 at 4:43 am #1196656I’m gonna try and hit the river Thursday or Friday, first time on the water since late April… Any pointers on what stretch of river to try? Bark river and north or VFW to the lake? Leaning towards HWY 26 launch and just see where it takes me… Any idea of water temps and any luck on plastics yet? Any info would sure help.
September 25, 2013 at 11:08 am #1196669@ ProDrive Al, Saturday fished from 106 bridge to Blackhawk, zippo, water temp was 68. Sunday talked with four anglers at Blackhawk, nobody catching fish the last couple weekend. There all waiting for that big fall bite. It could turn anytime now, please keep me posted how you do Thur and Fri. Can’t fish until next weekend, this weekend big rummage sale city wide and at my house. Lots of good fishing stuff for sale. You all no how it builds up time to get some of the slow mover cleaned out.
September 25, 2013 at 11:23 am #1196673Thanks Jeff, will let ya know how it goes…. Been too long since I’ve wet a line so looking forward to just some time on the river. Did you get those crappies on minnows or plastic?
September 25, 2013 at 3:01 pm #1196723The fall walleye bite is just getting started on the wolf river…shouldn’t be long until the Rock starts in. Crappies up there have been hit/miss pending the quality of timber your fishing. Hopefully the rock is getting more consistent than what we have been doing up there
