Wisconsin River below the Dells by
Joel Ballweg
(3/18/2008)
A long, cold winter was officially put behind us when we made our first open water walleye fishing excursion of the year to the Wisconsin river below the Dells Dam. Long time friends Mark "Buck" Pings and Kevin Key were more than willing to join me for the first fishing trip of the year. All of us were looking forward to feeling the pull of a walleye or sauger on the end of our line.

May Walleyes & Saugers on Lake Wisconsin by
Joel Ballweg
(3/02/2008)
Saturday, May 12, 2007 The crappie fishing this spring was fun but I was ready to leave it behind and start chasing walleyes. I've been seeing lots of good fish pictures from quite a few of the other Lake Wisconsin walleye fisherman and it's been killing me to not be able to go after them. Today was the day I started to change all that.

After the day we had yesterday on Lake Wisconsin, I was really wondering if they would be just as hot today. Dewey Schultz and Kim Christians were my guest today. Dewey is a repeat client and proved his fish catching ability to me last fall when he narrowly out fished me in my own boat. Ouch!

Despite cold front, fishing still good! by

(7/11/2007)
Despite the recent cold front, the Wisconsin River system is continuing to produce quality fish! Today saw temperatures in the 70's only compared to the 80's and 90's of the past week. Fishing spots more thoroughly and a bit slower was in order, but we managed a mixed bag today...

Scott Wright & Jim Linder have been friends for a long time. Scott lives in Middleton, WI and Jim lives up in Wausau, WI. Even though they live a couple of hours apart, it sounded as though they managed to get together on a pretty regular basis. Today they were spending time together in my fishing boat.

Todd Kowalski had planned this day out quite awhile back. He gave his dad a guided fishing trip with "Ballwegs Guide Service" on Lake Wisconsin for Christmas. The kind of gift that you can share with the person to whom you give it to.

Spent the morning chasing crappies with Chuck Hulburt and Gary Maki then trying our hand at walleye fishing during the middle of the day before returning to crappies again later in the afternoon. Gary had heard about the great trip Chuck and his wife Billy had fishing crappies with me last fall and both of them were hoping for something similar today.

On Sunday, Dick Majcher and his daughter Pam jumped in the boat for a day of fishing. Cold overnight temperatures in the spring usually mean the fishing will be slow in the early morning hours.

It's the last weekend of April and chances are, if you went fishing on Lake Wisconsin, you were probably chasing crappies. Catching some slabs is a great way to start out the new year.
