Sheboygan County Fall Hunts & River Sports Fishing

Wolf Pack is very busy in the fall. Between the marshes, fields, and rivers, the Wolf Pack guides are busy with fins and feathers! Grab a cup of coffee and take a look at the pictures.
Wolf Pack's "office" opens before sun-up. Our staff is ready and waiting to take you on a great duck hunt.

"Taz" is our official greeter...."Good morning and welcome aboard!"
The trucks instrumentation even advised it was cold enough for the roads to have frost....cold weather, hot ducks!
One of the best parts of a Wolf Pack Hunt is a great duck-boat breakfast!
No pressure....even Taz can "wait" for breakfast.


After chow, it's time for eyes to the sky...waiting for those early morning flights.
You want to duck hunt with a seasoned pro? Hunt with the Wolf Pack, hunt with Roy.
Ready to roll, ready for the flocks!
"Taz" ever vigilante....ready to hunt.
On the go in comfort with Dave at the tiller.
Welcome to some of the best times, the best places, and picture perfect scenes!

Taz with a Canadian Goose retrieve -- way to go Tazzer-man!
Another goose served up by the TAZ.

Taz says bye for now....but always remember your hunts with Wolf Pack Adventures! What's next....are you up for some river fishing?
Nice catch of a female Chinook Salmon!
Our guest even visit from the Eastern United States to catch a big hook-jaw male Chinook Salmon.
Even though the salmon are getting darker, into their fall spawning colors, they still have some fight in them!
Guess what? We're starting to see some Brown and Rainbow Trout action. This 32" Brown was her first fall fly-fishing trout!

Alright, my wife caught a nice Brown Trout, the guy behind me is releasing a Salmon. I was throwing a spawn sack (brown spawn) in the drift and set the hook when the bobber went down! Expecting my big fall fish to be Salmonoid, BUT NOOOOO! I get an aggressive Blue-gill -- go figure?
After taking some teasing from the fishermen around the spot, I decided to move down river....and did it pay off!
Third fly-cast with a purple blood sucking leach pattern yielded this acrobatic 29" Rainbow Trout!

In case you're wondering what the Salmon run looks like...well here it is. You can see several males "tending" to a female on the shallow. They fight each other, biting tails, shoving, and chasing each other.
They look so awesome...like a battle group of submarines.
Here is a dominant male (left) tending to a female. The males get a pronounced hook-jaw, visible through the water. You can get close to these fish for pictures.
Folks...don't forget to book a fall adventure with the Wolf Pack! We're out Goose & Duck Hunting, Musky Fishing, and River Fishing....get out while it's all happening!

Duck Musky Omelet?

Wolf Pack Adventures really gets into the fall. Order up a duck musky omelet adventure!


We pride ourselves on finding the birds and giving you an enjoyable duck hunt.

We are also out there scouting for the Musky! As cold weather sets in, the Musky start chopping on sucker minnows to gain winter fat.
Now, Pat's duck boat omelets are the BEST! I have eaten meals from coast to coast and border to border -- his duck boat omelets are worth the trip! What do you like - onions, cheese, sausage, mushrooms, bacon?
"Taz" loves the works and so do my son and I!
The secret is in the way Pat makes the omelets...not just the ingredients, but actually the process....you have to see it to believe it!

Sheboygan River Brook Trout & Chinook Salmon!

Father and Son ran with Wolf Pack Adventures for a great fall river fishing trip! This pair got to spend half the day in the waters with big Salmon cruising all around them.

Our bonus catch was this male Brook Trout! This great surprise took Brown Trout Spawn under a float just off the current.
Joe was being guided by Wolf Pack guide in training "Minnow" when this fish hit - nice net job by "Minnow" to get this fish in for Joe.
Joe's first fish of the day was this male Chinook "King" Salmon. We caught fish on stick baits, spinners, and some spawn.

Joe's son caught his first big King Salmon! Here he is hugging the big male Chinook - I believe even the salmon is smiling!
Now a smile that big says it all! He fought this fish for quite some time, he pumped the rod to gain line, held on when the fish ran, and never quit! Way to go!!!!
Schools of salmon were everywhere.....here you can see four fish with their backs out of the water....
We saw some great action today, got a nice couple of fillets to take home, and in the end created memories.
On behalf of Wolf Pack Adventures, John, and "Minnow", we would like to Thank Joe and his son for fishing with us! We hope you had a great time and have memories to last a lifetime!

You gotta see the leaping Salmon of the Sheboygan!

Fall Salmon run is ON!
"Minnow" - one of Wolf Packs guides in training, fights salmon on his fly-rod. A local fly-fisherman was awesome enough to lend his expertise! Thank You sir!
A mature ready to spawn male Brown Trout was caught using fresh spawn.
The Wolf Pack got this first time fly-fisherman on a nice spawning female Chinook Salmon.
She took a egg-sucking leech pattern.
NOW sit back and enjoy the next round of acrobatic salmon pics. These brutes are leaping into the air below the dam.



Shortly after these pictures were taken, we watched two people on the other side get grazed by leaping Salmon!


Folks...these fish are truly amazing! Even if you don't fish, coming to see the leaping Chinooks of the Sheboygan is a grand event.
"Minnow" on his many fights of the day.

Some times the fish don't jump, but they just swim up on the landing...like rockets!
