Overview

Fox River is a public water in Wisconsin's glacial lake country, open to boating, fishing and paddling. Anglers here target walleye, muskellunge, largemouth and smallmouth bass, northern pike, bluegill, crappie and yellow perch. Inland trout streams and the Great Lakes add brown, brook and rainbow trout plus salmon.

Recreation

As moving water, it fishes by current — target seams, eddies, holes, bends and woody cover rather than open flats.

Public access points along Fox River put boaters and paddlers on the water.

Best Time to Visit

Spring and fall are typically the most productive and comfortable times to fish here; summer brings the warmest water and the most boat traffic, and winter offers hard-water fishing once safe ice forms.

Safety

River current, woody snags, shifting sandbars and changing water levels are the main hazards. Respect the current, scout unfamiliar stretches, give way to any commercial traffic, and never anchor from the stern in a strong flow.
