| I may be wrong, if I am someone correct me, but I think Little Bohemia burned a while back didn't it??? I have always favored the steaks at Blink Bonnies, between Minoqua and Eagle River, but the wait can get old sometimes depending on how busy they are. If you go, get there early.

Location: Presque Isle Wisconsin | Littlr Bohemia did not burn down.Great food and Atmosphere.The Pine Baron right in town is American High cuisine (excellent). Smokeys is a new but very nice place at Hwys K & W just north of Town.On Hwy P in Presque Isle,just up the road is the Carlin Club.Great food in a German Rathskeller environment ( HIghly recommended).
AS for fishing, Try Fawn,Wild Rice,The channel area between Wild Rice and Alder.All are easy fishing in a weed and wood environment.

| Try the Aberdeen Lodge on Wed. and Fri. nights they have a fish fry, perch, walleye and cod. The owner will also give some good real time advice as to where the fish are biting. Chris |

I'll second that. Places like Birch or Little Bohemia are nice if you're looking for something a little more spendy, but Pea Patch is great when you just need some good, cheap food.

Location: Oconto Falls, WI | I can’t help too much with the food as I spend almost every waking minute fishing when I am there. Greer’s Pier does have good sandwiches though.
Each person has there own special way of fishing, and I am no different. Last year on June 11 (my first day out there last year) we caught three muskies suspended in 5 hours of fishing time. All the fish came on big baits – 10” Warner Crankbaits and Mag. Bulldawg. Spider, Rest, Clear, Manitowish, and Little Star all have good suspended bites. Don’t run your lures too deep this time of the year. I would say the upper 8’ would be best. Water temps last year were 70° at that time. Unless we get a good sustained warm spell look for the water temps to be in the mid-upper 60’s.
I know everyone always says fish shallow and weeds early, but this is what worked for us last year. Good luck!
