WISCONSIN'S TROUT SEASON CLOSES AT THE END OF THIS MONTH.Another perfect summer day as high temperatures will struggle to get into the 70s.
The pattern should feel familiar by now. Tricos first thing on a few creeks, then terrestrials with a dropper during the day (on breezier days, hopper fishing has been fantastic. Calmer days it has been beetles and ants), then a few rising fish to tiny mayflies and midges in the evenings.
Subsurface fishing has been good on a mix of midge larvae and other tiny, thin bodied flies as well as on leeches streamers and some larger scud patterns.
Creeks are clear and water temperatures are in the mid 50s to 60s.
