Where is the best UP fishing close to Eagle River, Wisconsin?

What are you looking to fish for?

I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you!

There are some great walleye lakes, some great panfish lakes, and some great bass lakes. It really depends on what you're fishing for.

There's a crick in the Ontanogan Nat'l Forest near Watersmeet that has some spectacular Brook Trout fishing. At least it did the last time I was there, probably 15 years ago. Stony Creek. Best found on a platbook as I recall. Native brookies dumb enough to hit a bare hook. And those were keepers... Amazing fishing. Rarely went a day without limiting out and caught fish all day every day.

Well, there isn't any "Ontanogon Nat'l Forest"- I assume you mean the Ottawa. Anyway, I am not familiar with Stony Creek, but I know the Ottawa National Forest very well. Where's Stony Creek? I've never even heard of it!
