Guess Ill see what happens but really hopin to get into some silver fish out there?? Why would you ask a question like that! Just kidding, nice to see another Milwaukee guy. It might work for you but the water might be a tad cold around there. A buddy and I were just talking about browns today and the magic temp for fishing outside the warm harbor water is 40 degrees. If it's colder than that outside the harbor our expierence has been it's a waste of time. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulywood Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Good luck and welcome aboard! Besides Captain Russ who already answered there are a few Milwaukee guys around who should be able to help. I think there is a report or 2 in the Wisconsin section, though they weren't to encouraging. Feel free to look around and stop in the Welcome section and introduce yourself. You will find this site to be very friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit N Run Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Good luck out there! They started picking up Coho's last weekend. I PM'ed one guy on LL about fishing last weekend and he was using Flicker Shads. 20-40' of water and was nailing fish good. I'm two weeks out from feeshing the big water, but can't wait. I ran to Port Washington 2 weeks ago, after that big rain, and had my first skunk in 5 years....Won't be long, and we'll be POUNDING fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max23 Posted April 7, 2011 Author Share Posted April 7, 2011 Hey thanks for the welcome! This will be my third time out this year and I've only boated one 15 lb brown. I've run into 39 deg water so I guess were close. And I do have two flicker shads to run. Its supposed to be 70 on sunday so maybe it will warm it up a little. Thanks again see you on the water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmon Assassin Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I am also a mke guy, we multiplying on the site, nice..... Don't worry about lake link, I wouldn't wipe my arse with that site. I launch the boat next Friday, so I really don't have good advice other than fish south for now and keep changing lures till you find what they want.

Just Hook'n Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 MAX, just so you know . . . we hang 15lb browns on the wall on this side of the lake. they just don't get very big and you rarely see them over here. I'd say you have a good start, and welcome to the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
