Fishing on Lac Vieux Desert
The Fishing is great and the catching isn’t bad either!!
There are many happy and successful fishermen.
Annual Stocking Program – This fall the LVD Lake Association released thousands of 4 – 6-inch Walleye.
In addition, the WI DNR released 10 – 12-inch Musky.
This should keep the fishing in good shape for some time to come.
