| Heading up to Lake Dubay this weekend for the first time. Just wondering if anyone would like to offer some pointers or general locations on where to try. Thanks in advance |

Location: Central WI | I live 15 minutes south of Dubay in Stevens Point. I've never made up there..lots of water to explore. Be interesting to see if anybody chimes in. There's a boat ramp just below the Dubay dam on the west side of the WI river. I know the dam and areas south of the dam can be good spots to try. |

I heard of this lake and I always want to fish there! I heard some large musky there. My aunt and cousins live near Pittsville so Someday I would love to fish Dubay Lake! |

| its a small flowage... fish islands, even if you cant see the current its there and fish where the edges are... fish shore lines bays and don't be afraid to go into no mans land and fish mid lake structure... sounds vag I no but you will find fish everywhere |

| I wouldn't consider it a small flowage. Sure, it's not the Chippewa Flowage but it sure as heck isn't McDill Pond. Just under 7000 acres gives a ton of different elements to choose from.
It holds some very impressive fish....but then again there isn't a section of the WI River that doesn't. It's a flowage so it has current. Pay attention to how the current interacts with the environment. Seams, eddies, etc. It's also a neat place to tap into what many dont view as traditional structure. If you truly want to have a blast and hit it just right, bring about a 4wt or 5wt fly rod along and find surfacing carp. This was usually a good time of the year for this and my time spent out there quickly shifted from fishing muskies to going after carp. Carp using that tactic is incredible fun
