same experience here with the namekagon. The brule is a fine idea and have a few friends who make a special trip for the brown drakes

If you do decide to try the Brule, Fish it during either the early morning or late evening hours. Any other time of day is a waste if you are serious about catching anything of any size. There should be either Hexes or Brown Drakes hatching around the time you will be there. Email me directly if you want some suggestions on private access points that my family and I have permission to use.

The Boise Brule in Brule WI. is close, however you will have to deal with a Canoe about every 3 minutes in the summer. It is a world class trout stream, and beautiful. There is easy wading around all the campgrounds. Take a 4wt and a handful of pass lake streamers and you will clean up on the brookies, Great fun. My grandfather was born and raised on madeline island. I however do not like the Bayfield area during the summer, it is too crowded. Crowds dont bother me all that much, but...

Hi Mark

I was in Hayward, fishing the Namekagon, last week. We've vacationed in Bayfield a couple of times (it really may be the last best place). Feel free to PM me and I'll be glad to share what I know about the area with you.

he**.....just took the time to see in your profile that you are in gopher country...I don't have to tell you about weather
Why not stop for a little fishing on the way up and back on the best dam* trout river in wisconsin.
I remember poking around up there on an anniversary trip ( without rod) and Eric is right about your likely prey as you probably know already. A couple of those stream...

Mark,
I don't usually make it that far north for trout. The prairie river, I know fairly well, but that is over 2 hrs away. Let me take a look at my notes and drop you a pm later. Smallmouth fishing in nearby chequamagon bay can be spectacular..........its sight fishing like working a flat for bonefish . I can very much recommend a B&B . Beautiful accomodation, the hostess greets you with fresh baked goods every am before serving a full bkfst, Right on the lake, not too far...

Mrs. Tdoc and I are thinking about heading to the Bayfield / Madeline Island part of WI in a few weeks to celebrate our anniversary and spend a few days of R&R.

We are interested in finding a good spot to fish for just a few hours one of the days (it will be a short trip). Our definition of a "good spot" is any stream or river that is not crowded, has good scenery, and provides the opportunity to "maybe" catch a few speckled dace...
