Jim Humphrey and Bill Shogren

Wisconsin and Minnesota together boast more than 12,500 miles of designated trout waters in more than 3,000 streams. Thanks to conservation efforts by governmental and volunteer organizations, fishing is better than it has been in decades. In this completely updated and expanded second edition, veteran anglers Jim Humphrey and Bill Shogren have added information on dozens of new streams. The authors describe their native trout waters with an evocative sense of place and anecdotes that convey not only the details but also the experience an angler can expect.

  • Profiles of more than 150 productive trout rivers and streams

  • Advice on hatches, access points, and wading conditions

  • 43 detailed maps

  • Hatch charts and fly recipes for the region's major hatches
