 Fishing
At It's Finest!
Whether you’re
cranking’ baits for bass, walleye, northern, or just funsie fishing’ for some slab
size crappies the Lac du Flambeau main chain of 10 lakes that cover some 9,000 acres plus
its 100 other concentrated bodies of water are all crystal clear spring fed mesotrophic
types. Their glacier-carved structure along with weed beds, drop offs, sand bars and fish
shelters offer the angler

spring through late fall.
The William J. Poupart Fish Hatchery at the lower end of Pokegama Lake transplants millions
of walleye, bass and musky fry and fingerlings into Lac du Flambeau lakes each year,
fortifying the future of angling and the theme "Fishing at its finest in Lac du
Flambeau."
Local bait and tackle shops are always ready to help the newcomer with local
conditions, along with bait types for the best action.
The main chain of ten lakes is connected by channels that will accommodate the average

World Record
Musky Waters
Some of our lakes are listed by the
Department of Resources as likely to produce a world's record
weight-class musky. Since 1975, Lac du Flambeau lakes have
established 3 new world's line class records for musky recorded
with the National Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame.

Water temps on the chain continue to remain in the low to mid 70's. Walleye action has picked up pretty good for the most part. Cloudy days and early morning and late evening have been the best. Try weeds in 11 to 15 feet with jigs and leechs, in the evening try slipbobbers rigged with leechs and crawlers. Crankbaits worked over these weeds at nite will work also. Black bucktails and suface baits should produce over weeds with nice dropoffs for muskies.Try to fish the wind blown shorelines for these. Bass action is going good on the chain. Jigs with leechs and crawlers worked thru the deeper weeds have been working good. Northern pike are chasing baits now, try mepps ,daredevils, and spinnerbaits. Work the weeds in 6 to 12feet for pike. Perch are hitting small minnows and half a crawler in 10 to 18 feet. Tip light jigs and fish close to the bottom for these. Panfish are suspended in 6 to 18 feet, try slipbobbers with small leechs at certain depths until you connect fish then switch all bobbers to that depth. Crappies are also in the weeds suspended use beetlespins until you find them, then anchor and use minnows under a small float. |
