Need Advice: Fishing Nicolet NF in mid-July

[mattyvac]

I'll be in Townsend, Wisconsin the week of 7/11-17, and I'm having a hard time getting advice fishing either on the Flowage or nearby. It's located about 25 miles west of Crivitz.

 

I'd appreciate any help. Spin or fly gear, doesn't matter. I'll use what the situation calls for.

 

Thanks,

Matt

Matt, I'd give Mike Mladenik a call. He's a guide up that way, he spoke at the Blowout a couple of years ago. Let him know you are with the ISA, tell him you saw his ad in the newsletter, and see if he can help you at all.

If you can possibly manage the time, you might want to head over to the Menomonee. It's only a 30-45 minute drive north-west of there. It would be a shame to go all the way up there, and not make the effort to hit it for one day.

Guys,

Thanks for the advice.

I got in touch with Mike Mladenik, and he gave me a couple quick tips. Looking forward to hiring him in the future.

And as for the Menominee, thats all I've been hearing about since announcing I'd be in that neck of the woods. But being with the family, I might not be able to put it together. It still might happen. I'm going to ask about the Menominee in my next post.

 

Then there's Sylvania, another hour or two up the road, making it geographically undesireable for this family getaway. Last August, I caught my all time biggest smallmouth there, on a ISA hopper pattern that my 10 year old son Matthew tied at the One More Cast ISA group tying event. Doesn't get any better than that.
