About Baraboo River
Running through Wisconsin, United States, Baraboo River is the kind of river that fishes well at the right water level. Drop a lure or fly into the bubble line at the head of a pool and let the current swing it past holding fish. Long, slow glides at Baraboo River hold the bigger fish; the broken water above and below holds the smaller, more aggressive ones. Stay quiet on the bank — river fish are easily spooked.

Fishing Techniques
- For Smallmouth bass
Focus your fishing efforts around rocky structures, ledges, and areas with current, as smallmouth bass prefer these habitats.
- For Freshwater drum
Freshwater drum often feed near the bottom, so present your bait or lure accordingly, and be patient as they are not known for aggressive strikes.
- For Channel catfish
Fish near structure like submerged trees or rocks, as channel catfish often use these areas for ambush points and shelter.
