Fishing in Fox Lake
Fox Lake is continuing to earn its reputation of being in the top 10 of fishing lakes in the state of Wisconsin. Abundant fish in Fox Lake include perch, crappies, bluegills, musky, northern and bass. Fishing is a year-round sport in Fox Lake, either from boats, docks or public piers at the Town of Fox Lake Park/Boat Launch on Blackhawk Trail or the City of Fox Lake, Clausen-Riverside park/Boat Launch. Winter ice doesn't stop us either, ice fishing is alive and well! The aeration system, installed in 1970, is still keeping the lake from completely freezing, allowing for healthy year-round fishing. The Fox Lake Property Owners have been stocking Fox Lake for over 30 years.
