Angling in Tomahawk

Jed Buelow removes weeds from his lure while casting for musky on Lake Mohawksin in Tomahawk. Buelow, a Clintonville native, grew up fishing for walleyes and catfish on the Wolf River and now spends as much time as he can on the Tomahawk area’s many lakes and rivers. Greg Seubert Photo

Shore fishing opportunities like this small pier on the Jersey City Flowage give anglers a chance to fish without a boat. A dam on the Tomahawk River just north of Tomahawk forms the 423-acre flowage, which has musky, northern pike, walleye, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass and panfish. Greg Seubert Photo

Trout are common in nine-acre Moraine Lake in Lincoln County’s Harrison Hills area east of Tomahawk. Greg Seubert Photo
