FEBRUARY


Koshkonong Walleyes This vast basin lake straddling the Jefferson-Rock county line is home to six adult year-classes of walleyes eager to jump on a rosy red or fathead minnow set 6 inches off the bottom under a tip-up.

Key on water at least 5 feet deep and set the tip-ups in a triangle pattern about 50 feet apart. Fishing with buddies increases success geometrically with more lines in the water.

Try to stay away from the crowd. Tap many holes, and then put the drill away, leapfrogging your boards to stay over fish in this amorphous basin lake.
