Comments:
It was once again our family vacation time at Treelands Resort. Treelands is located on the Chippewa Flowage and about twenty minutes east of Hayward, Wisconsin.
The fishing was tough all week. I mainly targeted large mouth bass and pike, with a little musky fishing thrown in. The only pattern that developed was that the bass were not shallow and I did not know where they were.
I did take Brandon Swenson and his fried Dalton out one night casting. Dalton had never fished much before and he was excited when he caught a crappie on a crank bait. I also took a friend out that I had met at the resort. His name was Andy and he was from Rockford Illinois. Andy caught two pike and one crappie and I caught nothing.
This year I also booked a guided river float trip for muskies and small mouth bass. We were guided by Jason from West Fork Guide Service. I was also accompanied by my brother in law Dwayne Swenson. The fishing was not great, but the experience was enjoyable.
Observations:
The flowage is pretty full of water and there are not too many exposed sand beaches. The water was pretty clear and the mill foil is almost non-existent this year.
