Looks like we will have to settle for a few bluegills.
Took a drive along Popkos this afternoon to Lake of the Falls. A few dedicated fisherman were fishing along the road in the little bit of open water, with temperatures in the 30's. One canoe out. ...
The type size and light color makes it very difficult for us old fogeys to read!
After owning property up here for 25 year, I became a full time resident of Mercer almost 2 years ago. I've found it beneficial cost wise to venture out to do my major shopping. I agree with all...
Ice went out today, 3/21/12 on Wilson Lake with 8 days of records temperatures. I believe that it went out mid April last year, so looking forward to an earlier fish bite this year.
For those of you who use Popco's Circle East to get to the flowage or surrounding area, we were informed at City Hall that reconstruction of the culvert at the Little Turtle River on Popko's East...
What's with the gazzillion of biting flies along the shorelines? This is the worst I remember in my 23 years of owning property up here. Does anyone know what kind they are and what might help...
Now that (according to Don's report) the mayfly hatch has occured, how long before fishing will return to normal? I have a large group of fisherpeople coming from out of state the week of the 4th,...
Just returned from there today, getting the house ready to move up there permanently. YEAH! Put the pontoon in and carried the fishing equipment out and back in without putting anything in the...

Yikes! Just received my tax bill... does anyone know how Iron County can justify a 10% property tax increase? Iron county provides very little service compared to Milwaukee County, where there was...
For those who are concerned about security at their cottage, there is a Linksy's camera that is relatively inexpensive... around $100.00 (Check E-bay and Amazon.com). You can dial into it from your...
There is a Guide in Mercer by the name of Phil Graser who makes spinner baits which work great for just about everything in the Flowage. They are called Boonie Baits. Unfortunately, from what I...
I was there a couple of weeks ago, and there was very little snow. My cottage webcam shows that most of it is melted down to the dirt.
I'm on Wilson Lake, not far from the Flowage, and saw a pack of 6 wolves on the road on the east side of the lake this summer. A workman was driving a front loader down the road and the wolves never...
