FISHING IS EXCELLENT ON THE NAMEKAGON THIS YEAR!!

Fishing the Namekagon

Good trout fishing exists on the Namekagon River above Hayward, WI. 

 A variety of warm-water fish are caught in the remaining areas of the Riverway,

 including smallmouth bass, muskellunge, walleye and catfish.  Either a Minnesota

or Wisconsin fishing license is required, depending on where you fish.

The St. Croix is a state boundary river and is referred to specifically in

Minnesota and Wisconsin fishing regulations booklets.

You can pick up copies of state fishing regulation booklets at Riverway visitor centers,

or download copies from state Department of Natural Resources.
