Wisconsin author, Bob Allen, introduces kids to fishing

Featured, Features, Fishing, National Fishing, National News, News, Wisconsin /

A passion for fishing has led to a new career for Bob Allen.
The Brookfield, Wis., resident has self-published five children’s books in the last five years about fishing and had a booth June 17 at St. Croix Rods’ annual customer appreciation day in Park Falls.
“I’m retired and my wife said, ‘You need a project,’” Allen said. “I said, ‘Well, I wrote a little bit in high school’ and she told me to write about something I know. I coached hockey for 35 years, but I’ve been fishing for 70 years. I said, ‘I’m going to write about fishing.’”

Sturgeon make annual splash along Wisconsin’s Wolf River

Featured, Fishing, Home Page News, National Fishing, National News, News, Wisconsin /

The Wolf River walleyes had to wait a little bit this spring.
Doug Peterman and Doug Schramm drove two hours from their Sheboygan County homes in mid-April to take advantage of the Wolf River’s walleye run. They found an open dock on the river a few miles west of New London and settled in for a few hours of fishing.
That didn’t last long, as several lake sturgeon – some of them more than 6 feet long – swam under the dock. Peterman and Schramm set their fishing rods down and peered into the river as the sturgeon continued upstream on their annual spawning run.

Several families headed to Fireman’s Park in the northern Oconto County community of Mountain May 6 for the first day of Wisconsin’s inland fishing season.
