Brown County -
Fox River anglers have been targeting walleyes and musky the last few weeks. Fishing has been on the slower side for musky, but fishing pressure has been high. Most anglers have been trolling for musky. Walleye fishing has been fair over the last week with most anglers jigging for them up by the dam. Walleye fishing has been fair over the last week at Bay Shore Park, with most anglers trolling for them. The wind and the bad weather over the last week have made it tough for most anglers to get out. Little Sturgeon Bay angles have been trolling for walleye with some success over the last week, but the weather here to has also played a big role in how many boats are getting out. Anglers have also been fishing musky in Little Sturgeon with some success. Most anglers have been casting for them inside of the bay.

Manitowoc County -
Unfavorable fishing weather and the changing of the seasons made for a poor fishing week in the Manitowoc and Two Rivers area. Few, if any anglers were out in boats or fishing the harbor and piers this week because of the rain and wind last week. A little more activity was found in local rivers this week. On the West Twin River, chinook salmon anglers were still having some success at the Shoto dam where high water and fast current pulled a good number of fish back up to the dam. Chinooks were active in the river and many anglers were landing some large salmon ranging in weight from 15 to 19 pounds; however, the quality of the chinook salmon has been declining rapidly. On the East Twin River, fishing pressure was low on Saturday. The section of river just below the dam was very turbid making the river appear much more brown than normal and this may have discouraged anglers from trying their luck. NOTE: This is the last weekly creel report for the year for the Manitowoc/Two River area. Creel reports will resume next March when the creel survey starts again.

Door County -
Cool temperatures and rainy days continued to make for less than ideal weather this week. A few anglers reported taking some kings trolling spoons and crank baits in the canal. No report of salmon action on Lake Michigan this week. Action off the piers at the Coast Guard Station remained poor. Farther north, anglers reported taking a few fish out of Baileys Harbor, Gills Rock and the waters around Washington Island. A few chinook salmon can still be seen swimming in most of the northern Door harbors. Although there were few anglers on the water this week, smallmouth bass action was reported to be fair to good on Green Bay from Little Sturgeon all the way north to Washington Island, with the reefs and points are all producing some smallmouth. Walleye action continues to be fairly good throughout the county, especially at night and under low light conditions.

Kewaunee County -
Weather over this last week has been cool, windy, and rainy throughout the week making for some foul fishing weather this past week. Some kings continue to move up the rivers this week, but the numbers continue to drop off. Fish are still being caught in the Ahnapee and Kewaunee rivers from the mouths all the way up to the fish refuges below the dams. Success this week has been sporadic at best. Anglers that have been fishing in the harbors have been able to pick up a few browns and rainbows and maybe a coho this week.
