Ice, fresh Fish, Pheasant...like fine dining?

Ice, Fresh Fish, Pheasant...all the things you'd find in a fine restaurant, or hang with the Wolf Pack -- take a look!

Blue-gills are moving into 3-5' of water and good size perch can be found in 8-10'. Red Ratso jigs tipped with a wax worms are the ticket! Slow movement is a must. Ice is clear but the Pack fished in the fog and 70 degree weather! Yes 70 degrees on Sun March 25! The ice is at about 16-18 inches and the shore line are going fast --- be careful.

This late season Blue-gill had to feel funny coming out of the ice into "summer-time temps!


Great looking Perch! It won't take many of those to make a great meal... fish with the Pack, eat like the Pack! But, wait, maybe you've got the taste for some mixed bag meals -- open water, dry land? What's on the menu...


This fisherman ran with the Pack looking for some spring Steelhead. It was a little windy, but you can't beat the "crowds".

Some people present a fine house wine to the table...but not the Wolf Pack, here comes today's selection.

Ahhh, a nice fresh river-run Steelhead! You can here the grill sizzling and smell the melted butter! Now, lets add a nice baked Pheasant to that order....that's right, I said Pheasant!


The Wolf Pack is offering some last minute Spring Pheasant hunts through mid-April. Spring is just as fun as fall when you run with the Pack! Hunt and fish like the days of old.


Great table fare, smart dogs, excellent guides, and God's country...don't you deserve to start out Spring the right way? Whether it's a gift or part of your tax return treat, take a Surf & Turf trip with the Wolf Pack!


The dogs are ready to get off the ice and get into the fields-- a few weeks remain to get you out into the field. Use your time off wisely.... book a spring trout trip or classic pheasant hunt with the Wolf Pack!

Lake of the Woods area fishing!

"Late ice" is heating up the fishing!


The Wolf Pack spent some recreation time with friends in Lake of the Woods!

The Perch bite took off and they had phenomenal perch action!


Ahhhh, can you think of a better Friday meal?


Pat has his dinner all planned out -- thanks to Frabill and Custom Jigs and Spins, Pat won't go hungry!


Mike has his appetizer...


Well it looks like everyone is eating great tonight...nice fat fillets!

"Can I keep him dad? Can I, huh?"


Don't you just love when Wisconsin wildlife cuddles up to kids, it's soooo bonding!


Mike caught this Pike cuddling up to his minnow on a Frabill!


Seriously, the Perch action was good and the Crappies even made an appearance. They can school up under the ice where you can't see them with the naked eye, but with a Lowrance Ice Machine, you can see their every move!


What a weekend....Crappie, Northern, Perch...it's like an aquatic Wizard of Ice!


Way to go guys..... this pike could be classified as a farm animal in some parts of the state!




Ya know....even the youngest of sports enthusiast get out and start family traditions!

DON'T MISS THE LATE SEASON FISHING...THE PERCH BITE IS PICKING UP!!!!

Wolf Pack ice fishes Sheboygan Marina

The Pack was out hunting down the trout! COLD temps gave the marina a base of ice. Note the Sheboygan Power Plant in the distance.

GET 'EM Mike! He's got one on.....on 4lb. test! It's a fight, a delicate fight, but.......

....he gets the Brown through the hole! Well done, way to lead the way!


Pat even go in on the action with his Brown!


Yet, another Brown Trout served up through the ice!


Fishing in comfort is one thing, but CATCHING in comfort is another...and Wolf Pack does both very well!


Well, there are enough Browns to form a Cleveland football team. At the end of the day, the Wolf Pack had seven nice trout on the ice....even in below zero temps the Wolf Pack can prove successful -- through "gear, guide, and know how!"

Milwaukee Sport Show

Wolf Pack Adventures' booth at the Milwaukee sports show. Here they highlight their use of a Polaris ATV loaded with two Jiffy Ice Drills, a Lowrance Ice Machine, and gear! Wolf Pack Adventures shows their mobility.


Pat Kalmerton during his ice fishing seminar.
Pat covered the Pack's equipment, style of fishing, baits, and overall ease of use and why it works!
Once again, Pat won the fillet challenge. He's either good with a knife or has had to fillet so many fish in his career it has become as natural as his booming laugh....we kow it's both!

Big Cedar Lake Kids Corral "Small" highlights!

Big Cedar Lake Fishing Tourney and the Wolf Pack was there for the kids!


That smiles is worth it! Getting a youngster hooked on fishing is easy when you have the creature comforts along with you as well!


Thanks to the partnerships with Jiffy, Frabill, and Lowrance, the Wolf Pack gets to set up kids corrals at some fishing tourneys. This future sportsman is set with a chipper/skimmer from Frabill and baits from Custom Jigs & Spins! Getting kids out there to enjoy the sport creates family bonds and creates responsible stewardship for the future!

One lucky person won this Ice Fishing House! All the creature comforts you can think off, plus removable ports so you can drill holes and fish in complete comfort!


The Wolf Pack brought out the new Frabill Glide Trax to be tested in the extreme temps and winds -- folks got to see all the creature comforts!

Prior to the start of the tourney, participants can go select their holes and get their equipment ready.


Once their spots are selected, they ALL have to wait across a plowed boundary on the perimeter of the fishing area....and wait for the "GO!"


It was COLD! Here Pat uses the chipper end of a Jiffy ice skimmer to get chop the ice out of his hole.


These year's tickets sold were up over 500 from last year! Between 2900-3000 attendees hit the ice!


As you can see, despite the well below zero temperatures, LOTS of people participated in this very popular fishing tournament!

Mike had first place for a while!


Mike Scharl -- (Wolf Pack team member) entered the tournament on his own and took 5th place for $5,000! He was using a Frabill rod!!!! We're proud of Mike -- he's been with us since the beginning of Wolf Pack Adventures!

Jason & Tracy Swartz the Tournament organizers!


4400 holes were drilled in 1hr, 35 mins. with 20 Jiffy Stealth Drills (one hole every 15 seconds) without a malfunction our hats are off to those boys at Jiffy !


When you think about it, that is some serious prize power! Just looking at it makes me remember the days of looking at the "toys r us" catalogue when I was a kid...except here, you just have to catch a fish to get something!


Pelican Lake Ice Fishing Tourney! If you didn't go this year, you gotta go next year! It's a blast and they have TOP-NOTCH prizes!
