Find a Fishing Buddy in Wisconsin

Wisconsin is a freshwater fishing heartland. The Bay of Green Bay produces trophy musky and giant walleye, Lake Michigan out of Milwaukee runs salmon and trout, and thousands of inland lakes hold bass, panfish, and pike. It is also one of the great ice-fishing states, with a hard-water season that is a culture of its own. MyFishingBuds connects anglers across Wisconsin so you can find a partner in open water or on the ice.
