Many people hit the water for fishing opener weekend, including Governor Scott Walker. He was in our area to kick off Wisconsin’s fishing season as part of the 53rd Annual Governor’s Fishing Opener at Chetek Lake.
Wisconsin has more than 15,000 inland lakes. The state fish is the muskellunge, or musky, and Wisconsin claims the most world-record musky catches. Walleye, bass and panfish are among the most popular fish reeled in Wisconsin. Through Thursday, May 3, 337,986 anglers had purchased fishing licenses and 86,355 had purchased trout stamps.
