FISHING FISHING MUSKELLUNGE “Boulder Junction’s prized trademark.” A lean, hard muscled fighter that reaches a maximum length of over 5 feet and a weight of almost 70 pounds. NORTHERN PIKE Pike attain lengths of as much as 50 inches and the record Wisconsin fish weighed 38 pounds. WALLEYE The largest member of the perch family grows to lengths over 30 inches and the record Wisconsin fish weighs 18 pounds and was caught in High Lake. LARGEMOUTH BASS This largemouth grows to a weight of 11 pounds and a length of about 24 inches. SMALLMOUTH BASS An average smallmouth weighs between 1 and 2 pounds and will measure about 12 inches and is considered the scrappiest fish of all. BROOK TROUT This brightly colored fish is native to Wisconsin’s streams and feeds on stream insect larvae, but will readily take baits such as worms, minnows and chub tails. YELLOW PERCH They move about in schools, often numbering in the hundreds. The perch is primarily a bottom feeder with a slow deliberate bite. BLACK CRAPPIE An excellent game fish when taken on light tackle, the crappie may grow to a length of 18 inches. BLUEGILL Labeled a “panfish,” the bluegill is almost as deep as it is long. Length sometimes reaches 10 to 12 inches and weights go up to 2 pounds. The first reference to Boulder Junction as the “Musky Capital of the World” was made by a Chicago sportswriter who frequented (and fished) the area in the 1930s. The name has been used regularly to promote our area since 1942, and the U.S. Patent Office awarded Boulder Junction the trademark to use the name in 1971 due to the fact that more musky are caught on Boulder Junction lakes than any other similarly sized area. What would the Musky Capital of the World be without great fishing lakes? Boulder Junction offers some of the best fishing in Wisconsin. With 194 lakes within nine miles of town, the fishing options are tremendous. Boulder Junction is home to more than 50 class-A musky lakes, making it one of the best places in North America to catch a trophy musky. But the Musky Capital of the World® has more than just muskies – the area also boasts some of the best walleye, bass and panfish angling in the Midwest. Add in the spectacular scenery and you have the perfect fishing destination in every season. Whether you’re a hard-core musky angler, aspiring bass-master, fly-fishing trout hunter or a parent taking their kids out for their first fishing adventure, you’re going to love Boulder Junction. 4 1-800-GO-MUSKY
