Trip Report "Discover Wisconsin Television" Scouting




Taking Discover Wisconsin out in a couple weeks to trout fish. It was set up by Richland Center Tourism. I hit the water at 9am to check out a couple potential fishing destinations. The first spot was a swing and a miss. Nice looking water but no one was home.

The sun was crawling up in the sky pretty quickly. Bigger trout are finicky and are kind of shy in sunny conditions. There was another prospective place about 20 minutes away. The last time I fished there the weeds were way too high. The farmer told me he was going to pasture his cows in July there. I thought the small stream should be manicured by the cows by now.




The cows had taken care of business for me.

I decided to just fish it for a short time. I did not want the trout to be wary in a couple weeks when I return with the crew from Discover Wisconsin.







I am certain where I will take them. 30 Minutes on second location and 13 browns and one brookie...brookie had gill lice.
