About Somo River

As a river in Wisconsin, United States, Somo River fishes best when the flow is steady and the water is clear enough to see a foot or two down. Anglers who do well at Somo River pay attention to small things: the angle of the current, the colour of the water, what's hatching, where the wading birds are working. Fly anglers can match local insect activity; spin anglers can run small spinners or soft plastics through the same lies.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Largemouth bass

    Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.

  • For Muskellunge

    Use a figure-eight retrieve at the boat to entice followers to strike close to the boat.

  • For Pumpkinseed

    Use light tackle, such as an ultralight rod and reel with 4-6 pound test line, for maximum sensitivity and fun while fishing for pumpkinseeds.
