Bass Fishing
Largemouth bass shore fishing
8/2/15 @ 4:22 PM
I have been trying to find quality largemouth fishing spots in south eastern WI (preferably around Washington county). I don't have a boat so I try to find shore fishing opportunities or ponds where I can launch a small inflatable raft. Can you please share some great spots?
Thanks!

Lake Hasmer and Lake Erler. Both lakes are small, have a public fishing pier, and a carry-on boat launch so you can fish from shore or from your raft. Erler is loaded with largemouth but I've never caught anything more than 15" there. Hasmer has fewer bass but better size. Tight lines!!
Try cruising the back roads looking for some good looking farm pounds. I have had good luck getting people to let me fish but hunting is another story. I would not push the boat deal until after you have made a friend. Tell him you like to catch and release. But if he would like a mess of fish offer to catch some fish for him to eat. Of course clean them and never leave any litter. My father in law lets people fish his pond and it is a good one. But he has a few rules and regs that you follow or you are not welcome back.
