Grant River

Grant River cuts through Wisconsin, United States and offers classic river fishing. The local patterns are the universal river patterns: fish the heads of pools at first light, the deep slow water in the middle of the day, and the tail-outs as light fades. Light tackle and a careful drift go a long way at Grant River — heavy splashes spook a whole pool.

Fishing Techniques

• For Smallmouth bass

  Focus your fishing efforts around rocky structures, ledges, and areas with current, as smallmouth bass prefer these habitats.

• For Brown trout

  When fishing streams, focus on seams and current breaks, where trout hold to ambush prey.

• For White sucker

  Fish near the bottom in slow-moving water or near structures like rocks and submerged logs; White Suckers are bottom feeders.
