Fishing with the Guides By George Langley

All species hitting as temps begin to drop

These cooler nights sure are a reminder that fall is on the way. Even though we can still get some warm days, it is noticeably cooler now in the evenings. Hopefully, this year we will get a slow and consis- tent slide into cold weather rather than the inconsis- tent fall weather we have had for the last several years. Nothing is worse for the fishing in September than a pronounced warm front. We’ve had enough rain lately to cool the water and keep the water levels high. Insect activity is way down from the summer. This is great for everyone enjoying the outdoors. We’re seeing a few orange or yellow leaves, especially on the birch trees. Pretty soon, we’ll start to see them on the ground. Weed growth on the lakes is starting to recede somewhat and the shallowest weeds are starting to brown out. Water temperatures are still in the 70s, but high 60s on a few lakes. Walleye fishing is good, with some nice numbers coming off the Chain. You will be surprised at how shallow these fish will go on the Chain, as the dark wa- ter allows them to get up in the 3-foot weeds. Half- crawlers are still the favorite bait, with minnows starting to work a little bit. Best lakes on the Chain The top anglers in the National Championship Musky Open were, third; and back row, Sayer Larson of McFarland, fourth; Jeremy have been Catfish and Eagle. We’re also seeing some front row from left, Clayton Spiess of Eagle River, first; Mike Roz- Barber (and son, Trevor) of Eagle River, fifth; and Travis Mikula of fish deeper on the rocks on Eagle. A few anglers have gony of Naperville, Ill., second; and Rob Jorenby of Ridgeway, Three Lakes, sixth. —Staff Photo By GARY RIDDERBUSCH reported some bigger fish by drifting with crawlers over the mud flats. This can be slow fishing, but a good way to get bigger fish. On the clear lakes, the action is still in 8 to 14 feet in the weeds. Also, right off the Spiess catches four muskies weeds on the drop-offs can be good on many days. Leeches or crawlers are working best for these fish, but soon the action will turn to minnows.

Decker returning to Road America

After setting her eyes on the course at Road America near Elkhart Lake, Wis., at the age of 10, Natalie Decker of Eagle River fell in love. She had just recently moved up in classes in her young go-kart racing career and found herself taking laps on the “little” course. However, Decker had her eyes and heart set on something more — the 14-turn, 4-mile beauty that is Road America’s main attraction. “I just remember thinking how cool the big track was and hopefully one day I could be driving on that,” remi- nisced Decker. “I remember sneaking my golf cart with all my friends I raced go-karts with out on the big track just so we could drive around on it. We got in so much trouble, but it was worth it!” Despite getting in trouble, it never deterred her, in fact, it might have fueled her fire even more, as is par for the course when one is told they can’t do something. With her sights set on the NASCAR top series, Decker spent a handful of times on the kart course at Returning letterwinners for the Northland Pines football team in- Stephens, Jack Van Wormer, Kevin John and Ryan Peterson.

Slices of Life By Jill Pertler

Agony of ‘de-feet’

During the summer months, I enjoy going barefoot and dipping my feet into the lake. My husband and I experience our own version of a pedicure when we wade in a shallow sandbar and the minnows swim- ming there nibble on our toes. It scared me at first — and grossed me out to be honest — to think they were eating on our toes. But it only tickles and is actually pleasant once you get used to the idea of a small fish treating your skin like a smorgasbord. During the summer, I become more aware of feet. It’s probably because they are more available and viewable during the height of sandal season. This can be good or bad, depending on the overall state of the feet within view or within question. Feet are as different as the people walking atop of them. Some are short, some long; some are wide, some narrow; some are hairy, some bald; some have polished toenails; others go for a more natural look; some are cute, others eye averting. Like many things in life, my husband and I differ on foot stance. We are definitely not feet twins. Our toes are not even distantly related. The height of my toes decreases from the tallest big toe to the shortest little toe in a uniform fashion. I am able to trim my toenails straight across because they grow and end straight. I have very neat and orderly feet. I wish the same could be said about the rest of my body and life in general, but that’s another topic. The length of my husband’s toes conjures up a one- word description: anarchy. There is no law, no order, no pattern of tidiness. It’s simple disarray. His toenails are not cut neatly straight across because they do not grow neatly straight across. They are jagged and curved in places where jags and curves are unneeded To SLICES, Pg. 2B 2B WEDNESDAY, AUG. 21, 2019 VILAS COUNTY NEWS-REVIEW/THE THREE LAKES NEWS LIFESTYLE Ray named Artist of Month Arts center offers ______sip and paint event have been to move away BY GAY SCHEFFEN from dabbling in art, return SPECIAL TO THE NEWS-REVIEW The Warehouse Art Center The Warehouse provides all ______to her roots and doing art in Eagle River strives to necessary materials, brushes, everyday. quench everyone’s creativity paint and a 16 inch-by-20 “T-Ray” is what everyone “I took a hand building thirst with its Corks and Can- inch canvas.
