On the Water

Apple River spans 604 acres giving plenty of room for many water sports. The stretch of land surrounding the water is managed by the Wisconsin DNR, focused on preserving it for the wildlife that inhabits it. Locals report osprey, small mammals, and waterfowl here.

This section of the Apple River consistently produces good-sized panfish, so the fishing community has grown over time. However, panfish aren't the only star of the show. Anglers can also be lucky to find musky, largemouth bass, and northern pike!
