WDNR Outdoor Report 9.21.08
Summer has still been exerting itself with plenty of daytime heat bringing large crowds out to beaches, lakes and rivers across Wisconsin, but some early fall color is already beginning to show up in ash and maple trees through southern and central Wisconsin. Forestry officials say early color is usually a result of tree stress that can be from a variety of factors including flooding, drought, or insects and diseases.
Water levels have now returned to normal summer lows throughout most of the state. The slow-no-wake rules have been lifted in most locations, including the Dane County chain of Lakes and the Rock River in Janesville. The Kickapoo River has settled back into normal summer time flow and canoeing has been good. The lower Wisconsin River is now running below seasonal norms and many sand bars are high and dry. Canoe campers on the Wisconsin are reminded that the current is constantly eating away as the bottoms of parts of the sandbars and that sandbars can actually migrate in as little as a day. Additionally, water levels can change dramatically if the dam upstream is opened. Campers should be sure to select islands or sandbars with some vegetation for camping, and to obey all camping rules for the Lower Wisconsin State Riverway (exit DNR).
Fishing activity was pretty good across the Northwoods this week, with smallmouth bass again the highlight. Most smallmouth were found near structure along hard bottom areas that were also close to deeper water. Musky action also continued to be good. Bucktails and top-water baits continue to be the lures of choice and most of the fish have been found along the weed edges and in the less-dense weed beds. Walleye fishing continues to be slow.
The Peshtigo Harbor was producing some nice catfish and the Stiles Dam on the Oconto River has provided nice limits of bluegills. Walleyes were being caught outside the Oconto breakwater. Salmon and trout were co-operating on the north end of Green Bay this week, while, the walleye bite has continued to be been good in the lower bay. The perch bite on the bay remained hit or miss while the musky bite has been fair. Lake Michigan fishing continued to be on the slower side. Some windy days also kept some boats off the water this past week. Mostly salmon were caught. Pier fishing has remained slow.
The Mississippi River has been holding around 7.0 feet for most of the week. Bluegills, sheepshead, bass, walleye and catfish have all been really biting. White bass have been feeding on the top of wing dams, along rocky shorelines, and below dams.
Bonus antlerless deer hunting tags for deer management units that are designated as regular units in 2008 go on sale at noon this Saturday August 23. There are 22 regular units, which are those that are close to prescribed deer population goals. For these units, hunters must purchase a unit-specific antlerless tag. They cost $12 for residents, $20 for nonresidents and can be purchased one per day until the unit’s supply is sold out. Tags and permits can be purchased over the Internet through the Online Licensing Center; by calling toll-free 1-877-WI LICENSE (1-877-945-4236); or at license sales locations. DNR service centers are closed Saturdays, but the permits may be purchased during their regular business hours (check service center link for hours of operation, which vary by service center; service centers).
Turkey poults and hens are feeding on grasshoppers and are frequenting berry patches. Bear observations are up this summer with field crews spotting more than previous years.
Late summer and early fall are good times to do some bird watching. Fall warblers can challenge even the most observant birdwatcher, making for difficult but rewarding identification lessons. Shorebird activity is picking up across southern Wisconsin. Small numbers of blue-winged teal, green- winged teal and coots have arrived along the Mississippi River in the La Crosse area.
Prairies are in full bloom with coneflowers, black-eyed Susan, Joe-Pye-weed, sunflowers, compass plants, prairie clovers, cup plants and goldenrods blooming.
A three-minute audio version of this report can be heard by calling (608) 266 2277.
A new report is put on the line each week.

NORTHERN REGION
Superior DNR Service Center area
Brule River State Forest - The Bois Brule River is flowing at 110 cfs (cubic feet per second). The 63 year average is 128 cfs. Lakerun brown trout are trickling into the Bois Brule River and even one steelhead was reported. Hopefully the forecasted rain will bring more fish in for the fishermen looking for the "big one". Campgrounds have been busy on the weekends with families who are trying to get the last bit of camping in before school starts.Although the first day of autumn is a month away animals are now beginning to prepare for the upcoming fall season. Nighthawks are reported to be starting to group up in preparation for migrating south. Spots on deer fawns coats are fading rapidly and buck antlers are looking quite impressive and should soon be losing their velvet. Summer molt birds such as ducks and geese are more mobile now with their new flight feathers and are therefore much more visible. Swans are later molters and will be able to fly in early September. August is a good month to find uncommon shore birds in wetland areas along mudflats on Lake Superior. Shore birds from the Arctic will use Lake Superior as a stopping point as they are making their way to South America. They have an early and long migration. Choke cherries, blackberries and thimbleberries are ripe now and pockets of blueberries can still be found. Poorly formed and small acorns are beginning to fall. More acorns should start falling in the next few weeks.
Park Falls DNR Service Center area
Upper Chippewa Basin fisheries report (Price, Rusk, Sawyer Taylor and inland Ashland and Iron counties) - With the seasonal summer weather of the past week, fishing activity was considered pretty good across the Northwoods. Smallmouth bass were the highlight of the week, with area rivers and mid-size flowages providing some great action. Most of the smallmouth were found near structure along hard bottom areas that were also close to deeper water. Most of the action was from 12 to 15-inch fish, but some nicer fish in the 17 to 18-inch size have also been caught and released. Spinner and top-water baits, and small finesse plastics were the most successful baits. Musky action also continued to be good. Fish have been very active the last few weeks and most anglers report plenty of activity. Bucktails and top-water baits continue to be the lures of choice and most of the fish have been found along the weed edges and in the less-dense weed beds. No lunkers have been reported and most of the fish have been in the 30 to 38-inch size. Largemouth bass fishing has been erratic - some days produce some great action and other days yield very few bites. The largemouth seem to be favoring the woody cover and the deeper weed and bog edges. Top-water action has been very slow, with soft plastics and jig/craw combinations providing most of the success. Walleye fishing continues to be slow with scant report of any success. The few catches that have been reported have come from deep-water structure such as cribs and gravel humps, with leaches and crawlers being the favored baits. Panfish action has been generally slow, with a few nice bluegill and crappie being found suspended over mid-depth structure. Rock bass however, continue to be especially active and have provided many anglers with at least some sort of action.

Peshtigo DNR Service Center area
Marinette County - The blackberry crop is ripening quickly with the dry warm weather recently. Turkey poults and hens are feeding on grasshoppers and are frequenting berry patches. Bear observations are up this summer with field crews spotting more than previous years. Deer bonus tags go on sale August 23 for zones with regular gun hunts. The water temperature at the landings has dropped a few degrees with 74 to 76 being the norm. Water clarity is moderate to good with fishing pressure light during the week but picking up on the weekends. Salmon and trout have been co-operating on the bay this week when the weather permits. Anglers were keying on the north end of Green Island, the outside of the trout bar, and from the Green can south, fishing in 80 to 100 feet of water 50 to 70 feet down(find the temperature break). The hot colors have been greens, purples and blues. A new bait has hit the scene. it is called the Stinger (not to be mistaken for a stinger hook used for short bites). It is 2 inches in length and with some modification (remove the treble hook and replace it with a salmon hook) it is producing some big fish. The hot color for the Stinger seems to be blue/silver. The smallmouth bite on the Menominee River has slackened some in the past week possibly due to the weather. A catfish population survey is currently being carried out on the lower Menominee River. Cats in the 36 inch range have been measured. The Peshtigo Harbor is still producing some nice catfish on crawlers fished on the bottom.
Oconto County - The Stiles Dam is still the place for panfish aficionado with nice limits of bluegills being taken and the occasional trout or crappie. The perch bite on the bay remained hit or miss. Once anglers find them they were more than willing to bite. The perch were being caught in 12 to 13 feet of water using leaf worms or minnows. Walleyes were being caught outside the Oconto Breakwater Harbor using crawler/harness fished in 17 to 30 feet of water.
Green Bay DNR Service Center area
Brown County - In the Fox River of Green Bay, fishing activity has been slow. Rough fish can be caught with worms, but game fish catches are few. In the lower Green Bay, the walleye bite has been good. Crawler harnesses have been the most successful. The area near and around Volks Reef has produced consistent results. The yellow perch bite was still quite spotty. Many days were slow. To get good numbers of decent sized fish, anglers have had to fish hard. There were good days here and there, but the bite can quit very quickly. The bay has been on and off rough due to winds over the last several days possibly the reason for the slow bite.
Sturgeon Bay DNR Service Center area
Door County - In the Little Sturgeon Bay/Sawyer Harbor area, smallmouth bass have a slow bite. Fish can be found but getting them to bite takes some effort and luck. The walleye bite seems to be picking up slightly. North of Larson’s Reef has become a bit more active than other areas. Larger walleye are mainly being found suspended in deeper water, while smaller walleye are being found in the shallow waters. No reports on the night bite. Yellow perch in this system seem to be getting more active. Some luck has been reported near Geano, but anglers on the east shore have been doing relatively better. Macco Reef and areas near Bayshore have provided good results. Chaudoir’s area and north have also provided good results. Finding the fish is the key. Many anglers have been catching numerous small perch and few decent sized fish on their trips out. It is important to note that perch tend to school with other similar sized perch. If you are catching a lot of small fish in one location, trying another may give you a chance at catching larger fish. Most are being caught in shallow water – around 8 feet – usually in the thinner areas of vegetation. The musky bite has been fair. Several large fish have been caught over the last couple of weeks but none that could be legally kept. They have been found in shallow water along the shores or at drop-offs near reefs. Water temperature is around 70 degrees.
Kewaunee County - Fishing action continues to be on the slower side for Trout and Salmon on Lake Michigan. Some windy days also kept some boats off the water this past week, or limited their time out. For those who got out, fishing success appears to be slightly better than weeks past. Mostly Salmon still continue to be caught. Most fish are still being caught out in the range of 120-180 feet, and are down deep, 90-100 feet or so. Boats that are able to get out further could have a little more success. Pier fishing has remained slow, but a Salmon or Rainbow can be caught here and there. Water temperatures remain in the 70s, still quite warm for optimal conditions.

Lake Michigan fisheries team report
Sheboygan County - In Sheboygan shore fishing off the piers has been slow, and trollers have struggled to find fish as well. A few rainbows and chinooks have been taken in 100 to 140 feet of water, with most of the chinooks caught 80 feet down and rainbows somewhat closer to the surface.
Ozaukee County - Both shore fishing and trolling in Port Washington has been generally slow. Trollers have had the most success fishing 70 to 90 feet down in 100 to 200 feet of water. Decent numbers of chinooks and a few lake trout and coho have been taken on green and blue flies or spoons.
Milwaukee County - Trollers in Milwaukee have been catching chinooks and a few coho and rainbows in 100 to 130 feet of water. Flasher and fly combinations and glow spoons have been most productive in the early morning hours.
Racine County - In Racine shore fishing has been slow overall, but action has been more consistent for trollers. Good numbers of chinooks have been taken in 90 to 130 feet of water, and browns have been caught in 70 to 100 feet.
Kenosha County - Shore anglers in Kenosha have been catching a few browns in the harbor, but the bite has been rather inconsistent. When the browns are hitting, both spoons and white tube jigs have produced. Perch fishing has been slow for shore anglers and boaters alike. Kenosha trollers have been catching chinooks and a few lake trout. Most fish have been caught from 90 to 120 feet of water, with the best catches taken early in the day.

Wyalusing State Park - Trails that are open are in good hiking condition. Nice catches of bass, catfish, and bluegills are being reported on the Mississippi River by local anglers.
Park bird feeders have been removed for the season due to raccoon destructiveness. Swarms of hummingbirds at the park office feeders continue to delight park visitors. The heyday of the hummingbirds is certainly here now. Hummingbirds are most active right before dark and on cloudy or rainy days. Recent sightings in the park include: red-bellied woodpeckers, downy woodpeckers, hairy woodpeckers, purple finches, cardinals, bluejays, chickadees, nuthatches, tufted titmice, gold finches, mourning doves, tree sparrows, crows, flickers, bluebirds, robins, meadowlarks, orioles, rose-breasted grosbeaks, indigo buntings, Henslow Sparrows, eagles, wild turkeys, turkey vultures, indigo buntings, and red winged blackbirds. Indigo buntings are seen daily near the intersection of Turkey Hollow Trail and State Park Lane. On Monday evening, dozens of cliff swallows feasted on insects near the park office. After an extremely successful bluebird nesting season in 2007, (1st brood – 46, 2nd brood – 32) this year’s nesting season proved to be just the opposite. One box had eggs destroyed, with wrens being the likely problem. Another box had eggs abandoned. Ten boxes had young bird mortality, all at about the half grown stage. Three of the ten nests were tree swallows, so the problem also affected other bires. This year’s totals: first brood – 23, second brood – seven. There were 30 new bluebirds enjoying the park. The native prairie garden at the park office is beginning to show that fall will soon be here. It is still beautiful, but many flowers are beginning to fade and go to seed. Flowers in bloom include: purple coneflowers, black-eyed Susan, Joe-Pye-weed, purple prairie clover, nodding onion, prairie onion, cardinal flower, great blue lobelia, side oats grandma, bottle brush grass, St. John’s Wort, butterfly milkweed, white aster, coreopsis. Wildflowers in bloom in the area include: cow parsnip, chicory, Queen Anne’s Lace, mullein, lobelia, evening primrose, and bergamot, jewelweed (touch me nots). The Starsplitters of Wyalusing State Park will present an astronomy programs on Saturday, August 23 at 8:30 p.m.

Governor Nelson State Park – The slow-no-wake rule has been lifted from Lake Mendota and the lake has returned to normal levels. All piers are ready to use. The beach and pet swim area are open. Please use caution when walking on the beach, there has been some erosion. The boat landing restrooms and fish cleaning table remain open.
Lake Kegonsa State Park - Dane County has lifted the "slow-no-wake" rule on Lake Kegonsa. The only restriction remaining on Lake Kegonsa is the normal no-wake zone within 200 feet of the shoreline. All fishing and boating piers have been reinstalled. A Water Quality Advisory is in effect on the lake. Due to the record rainfall this summer, the lake levels are still high and the lake has experienced nutrient loading from runoff. The additional nutrients have caused increased algae growth including blue green algae. Conditions at the park beach and pet beach change daily depending on the direction of the winds. Contact and or ingestion of blue green algae can cause skin irritations and illness. Contact park staff at (608) 873-9695 for the most current conditions. Be prepared for mosquitoes due to the amount of water we have had in the area.

St. Croix County
Willow River State Park - Summer is still exerting itself with plenty of daytime heat and morning humidity. The prairie trails will be relatively dry underfoot while the forested areas hold more dew in the mornings. Coming out of the canopied forest into an open prairie, there is a noticeable change. The humidity drops but the heat rises. Some green leaves are already down probably due to lack of rain. The silver maples near the office are dropping leaves and some of the green ash trees are showing a little color. The lake has been running a light shade of green, which is normal for this time of year. Fishing reports have been few. One smallmouth bass was reported by anglers fishing from a canoe Wednesday morning. Yellow Coneflower is in bloom on many areas of the park. It’s relatively quiet for bird songs but the prairie sings with crickets in the morning. In a 2 hour ski training session on a Saturday morning (9 a.m. start), the visitor reporting the above saw five people. Even with a full campground, it is still possible to find un-crowded trails. A regular schedule of ski training sessions will start in October. Weekday day use has been lighter as we’ve been in the state and county fair season. Camping on weekends remains full while the weeknights offer a good selection of sites, including a few with electricity.
La Crosse DNR Service Center area
Late summer and early fall are good times to do some bird watching. Oftentimes fall migrants do not move through an area as rapidly as they do during the spring migration. Therefore, birdwatchers may have a little more time to actually "watch" the birds. Fall warblers can challenge even the most observant birdwatcher, making for difficult but rewarding identification lessons. Remember that most birds do not sing in the fall to the extent that they do in the spring. That means birdwatchers need to rely more on keen eyesight and less on their hearing to locate and identify birds. Currently shorebird activity is picking up across southern Wisconsin. Keep an eye on shorelines, mudflats, and flooded fields for these birds.
Mississippi River - Small numbers of blue-winged teal, green- winged teal and coots have arrived in the La Crosse area. Rails have also begun to migrate.
Crawford County - Another week of dry weather has allowed local river systems to settle down and clear up. The Mississippi River has been holding around 7.0 feet for most of the week. The forecast for the Mississippi River is to stay steady around 7.0 feet for the rest of the upcoming week. The Wisconsin River is in good shape as water clarity is good and many sand bars are high and dry. The Kickapoo River has settled into normal summer time flow and is clearing up too. All of the boat landings in the Crawford County area are open and usable. All the trout streams are in good condition. Boaters on the Mississippi River are urged to use caution now that the river is at or below 7.0 feet. Wing and closing dams can be dangerously close to outboard motor lower units. If you are unsure of where you are traveling stay in the navigation lane or slow down and utilize a depth finder. Besides wing dams, sunken trees and snags are starting to “rear their heads.” Fishing action was very good last week. Bluegills, sheepshead, bass, walleye and catfish are really biting. Anglers are finding good bluegill action above wing dams on the Mississippi River. Some anglers are drifting or dead lining in 4 to 10 feet of water and finding decent bluegill along the main channel or in deeper sloughs. Most anglers are using a chunk of night crawler fished off the bottom. White bass, perch, and crappie action has been spotty to good. Some reports of decent perch being taken adjacent to weed beds or in 6 to 10 foot flats. White bass have been seen feeding on the top of wing dams, along rocky shorelines, below the dams and at the mouth of the Wisconsin River. Look for crappie in downed trees or at the edge of weed lines. The best way to located decent fishing is to move frequently until you locate active fish. Fishing at Cold Spring continues to be slow, both inside and outside the railroad tracks. Most anglers are launching at Cold Spring but heading out to the Mississippi River. Once outside Cold Spring anglers are traveling around to find fish. Bluegill action was spotty. The boat landing at Cold Spring is in good shape but the water is low. The Ambro Slough complex was pretty good. Bluegills were active all over, but the size structure is a bit smaller that other places. Anglers fishing Big Lake, Fish Lake, the Upper and Lower Doubles, Big and Little Missouri, Fennimore Cut, and Spring Lake have found decent fishing at times. The best fishing tip is to keep moving around until you find decent size and active fish. There has been some decent bluegill action reported in downed trees and deeper sloughs. Spotty crappie action has been reported. Horseshoe (McGregor or Sturgeon) Lake remained slow this week. Fishing for sauger and walleye has been good. Try trolling crank baits in deeper water sloughs. Black Slough, Roseau Slough, and Big Lake have produced some fish. Another tactic is drifting with leeches or night crawlers. Once a walleye or sauger is caught target that area. The S curve by Harpers Ferry was pretty good to this week. There has been some very good action on wing dams throughout the Mississippi River. Trolling crank baits or dead lining with leeches and night crawlers have worked very well on wing dams. Northern pike action picked up a bit. Look for northerns in areas were cooler water might be entering the river or in slow moving deeper sloughs. Casting crank baits, spoons, or spinner baits have worked pretty good also. Try these baits in the timber and weeds. Some decent fish have been caught trolling on Big Lake, the bottom end of the Ambro Slough, and the Lower Bottoms outside Prairie du Chien. Bass (both large and smallmouth) fishing has been good. Anglers are finding active bass in shallow backwater areas, on wing dams, in the weeds and in the timber. Most bass anglers will have success with varying colors of plastics, spinner baits, and crank baits. There hasn’t been a lot of trout anglers out this time of year, but those who fight the vegetation and bugs report very good action. Both live and artificial bait have produced quality fish. Mosquitoes, deer and horse flies are out. The gnat problems from past weeks has subsided. Mosquitoes have been bad in the river bottoms and some upland areas. In the river bottoms mosquitoes can be a nuisance all day and night long. During the evening hours mosquitoes have been a problem in higher ground areas. Stinging nettle, poison ivy, and parsnip await outdoor users so be careful and dress accordingly. Many grassed are starting to seed out and die back. There appears to be a decent acorn crop this year. Other nut trees like walnut and hickory are producing fair crops this year.
Merrick State Park - All trails are in good condition. Panfish have been biting and smallmouth bass and white bass fishing has been excellent. The bright red cardinal flowers are blooming in the south campground. Other flowers blooming around the park include bees balm, sunflowers, vervain, mullein, evening primrose, aster, spurge, blazing star and Queen Anne's Lace. August 29 at 8 p.m. there will be a Universe in the Park Astronomy Program.
Perrot State Park - All the trails are in good condition. Fishing is slow and the water level is normal. Summer wild flowers are fabulous! The prairie grasses are starting to bloom and are accompanied by the sunflowers, coneflowers, compass plants, prairie clovers and cup plants. Cardinal flower and Indian Pipe are also blooming in the cooler wetter spots along the water. Canoe and kayak rentals are available at Headquarters and Trempealeau Bay is a terrific place to beat the heat. The Winona Bridge connecting Wisconsin and Minnesota is now open to all vehicle traffic. Pedestrians and bicycles are restricted from using the bridge until further repairs to the walkway are completed. August 30 at 8 p.m. there will be a Universe in the Park Astronomy Program.
Wildcat Mountain State Park - Horse trails are in good condition. Hiking trails also are in good condition except the Hemlock trail remains closed. Canoeing has been good on the Kickapoo River with rentals and shuttles available nearby in the Village of Ontario. For weekend camping reservations are recommended. Sunday nights thru Thursday there are many open sites available.
Great River State Trail - The trail is open and in good condition. The prairie grasses are beginning to steal the show in the remnant prairie habitat along the old railway beds. Cardinal flower, coneflowers, sunflowers and the goldenrods are also blooming along the trail.
400 State Trail - The trail is open from Elroy to Wonewoc (8 miles) and from CTH V south of La Valle to Reedsburg (5 miles). The rest of the trail, including the horse trail segment, remains closed due to bridge damage from the June 2008 Baraboo River flood. Over one mile of washed out trail surface has been replaced. Replacement of the bridge near CTH V is scheduled to take place this fall. Flowers blooming along the trail include iron weed, Joe-Pye weed and green headed cone flower.
Eau Claire DNR Service Center area
Brunet Island State Park - Park trails are generally dry and in very good condition. Smallmouth bass and crappies have been hitting suspended worm baits. Largemouth bass, musky, and northern pike action has been good in the flowage. Catfish are being taken from the upper reaches of the flowage near the Holcombe dam. Species of birds seen or heard include: turkey vultures, rose-breasted grosbeaks, belted kingfishers, ruby throated hummingbirds, scarlet tanagers, a variety of wrens, red polls, bluebirds, lake gulls, golden finches, mallard ducks, common loons, great blue herons, red winged blackbirds, phoebes, Canada geese, sandhill cranes, robins, mourning doves, nuthatches, ravens, black capped chickadees, piliated woodpeckers, great horned owls, barred owls, and bald eagles. Plants blooming in the park include white snakeroot, harebell, common milkweed, water smartweed, rabbits foot clover, marsh hedge nettle, wild bergamot, brown eyed susans, lesser daisy fleabane, the water lilies, some of the aster varieties, orange hawkweed, wild columbine, ox eye daisy, wooly yarrow are flowering. A note to our Fall season campers. The paved roads in the South (electric) campground are scheduled to be ground and surfaced during the week after Labor Day this year. Please be aware that this is very noisy work involving large road equipment.
Wisconsin Rapids DNR Service Center area
Buckhorn State Park - Visitors have been enjoying the picnic areas and beaches and renting canoes/kayaks. There is starting to be some green algae in the water that moves around each day. White bass and crappie fishing seems to have been good over the last week with pike, largemouth bass, some walleye and some muskies being caught. Remember, park stickers are required for Launch C and D and there are no additional launch fees. Mosquitoes do not want to go away so remember to bring bug spray. Lake breezes kept them away at times at campsites. Biting flies have starting being a nuisance at the park, mainly biting ankles. Remember to secure your food at campsites from all animals. The deadline for the youth deer hunt has been extended - contact the park office for more information. The candlelight hike will be held on August 23 with a family concert before at 7:30 pm. The Friends of Buckhorn State Park will be providing some hotdogs and marshmallows for the campfire. Categories are people using the park, open, plants, animals, and one for photographers under 18 yrs old.
Roche-A-Cri State Park - Campsites and trails are dry. There are many quiet sites available during the week and on the weekend. There are a few mosquitoes so remember your bug spray. Trails are in great condition for hiking. If the office is closed, please self-register in the parking lot. Friendship Lake is about 1 mile south of the park and has a nice beach and swimming area. If you self-register for an annual sticker, it will be mailed to you. There is still time to get photos for the annual photo contest. Categories are people using the park, open, plants, animals, and one for photographers under 18 yrs old.
