There are 12 waterfalls close by that offer short and long hikes in serene and natural settings. A self-guided Waterfalls Tour provides a fun, family-friendly way to get back to nature. Consider taking along a picnic basket and take a leisurely lunch alongside your favorite falls! There is nothing quite like driving down a county road and navigating to a Waterfall in the Marinette County.
Use Crimped or Barbless Hooks. You can crush barb flat with pliers.
Set the hook early. Do not let them take it deep by giving them slack line. They will not swallow it deep.
You are No Doctor (except Frank and Donny) If your fish takes a hook deep and it can't easily be removed, just cut the line and leave the hook in.
Get Hands Wet.Dry hands are much more likely to remove a fish's layer of slime which protects the fish from fungus, bacteria and parasites.
Take Care of the Fishes Head and Eyes - head injuries are the leading cause of fish mortality after release.
Avoid the Shore - Never land your catch by dragging it onto the rocks, beach or even grass along the shoreline.
5 Second Rule - When you lift the fish out of the water, do it for 5 second intervals or less.
Revive it Properly -Face your fish upstream (or whichever direction faces into the current), not down, and let it breathe normally. If you've been taught by someone in the past to drag your catch back and forth in the water in order to help it revive, stop.
