Ice Fishing - Hayward, Wisconsin

While as a sport, ice fishing has been around almost forever, it really has changed over the last decade. Both in popularity, and how and where we fish. Much of this is probably due to more knowledge on it available and far better equipment available. Not only have we seen tremendous changes in tackle, but also we now have high tech winter clothing and portable ice shelters available to us that makes it actually quite comfortable being out there on the ice even in the worst of weather.

Because of the increase in popularity many lakes are seeing increased winter fishing pressure and more crowding. Not so on most of the lakes here in the Hayward Wisconsin area.

While you can and do see quite a few out the ice fishing on some of our lakes, on many more you're lucky to see another angler out there on any given day, much less a crowd! So why, if you are heading out on a winter fishing trip, would you want to head for one of those lakes where you will find roads plowed on the ice and literally small towns of ice shacks when there are other choices? No crowds and great fishing, sounds good doesn't it?

Here on Moose lake East of Hayward, you will find very little ice fishing pressure and yet there is good winter fishing for walleyes, crappies, perch, and panfish. Lodging is available in the winter at 3 resorts on Moose lake as is winter guide service.

Then too there are many other waters right in this area that provide great ice fishing. Just a few of the more popular ones are Teal, Lost Land, Ghost, Spider, Twin lakes, Grindstone, Lac Courte Oreilles, and Big Round. But you can also find good fishing and you likely will be the only one out there on many other smaller waters right around here too.
