I finally took my first trip ever to Lake Wissota. I had a couple of huge disadvantages when I got out there, one I never fished or been on Wissota before, two I had NO lake map so I had no idea where I was or where I was going. There are channels that just go everywhere??? SO I found a spot on the north end of the lake that had a few humps and pulled 2 16inch walleye and 1 crappie and missed at least 8 fish in this particular spot pulling spinner rigs with green blade and a bronze blade, bronze getting the most action. Later in the evening I moved down towards the State park (thats where I launched) but still on the big lake and was pulling the same set-ups on a different set of humps/structure and got a HUGE hit this fishn was massive but I must have had a weak spot in my line cause it snapped quickly after hook set and I lost the whole rig. So I tied back up, did another pass and managed to catch a little channel cat about 18 inches. Most fish were taken from 12-24 FOW. Also spent some time on a back channel pulling in sunnies from under a fallen tree.
All and all it wasnt too bad of a trip my prop took a beating due to not knowing where I was going and what depths are around the lake. I am suprised they dont have bouys out on the lake marking these shallow area’s. I will be back hopefully with a lake map and a better idea of where I am going. I had a good time and enjoyed the lake alot
