Where to fish Sheboygan area

[Sir ION]

Hi, from Michigan, visited Sheboygan last weekend, and might go back next weekend.  Was hoping to bring my gear and try for some pike and/or pan fish.  Anyone know of any good lakes around the area that would be worth giving a try? I also have some family around the Waukesha area too. As I was driving near Downtown Sheboygan, I went by a bridge near (I think) Kiwanis Park?  But there was a shanty down there and it looked like they were using what looked like slammer rigs or something, not sure what they were fishing for?  Any tips would be appreciated.   Thank you!

They were more than likely targeting steelies. As far as lakes to fish for panfish or pike I'd try the Elkhart lakes more towards plymouth. I'very fished little Elkhart and you can keep busy chasing flags for pike, nothing really big though.

Thank you for being the only person to respond.  I will look into the Elkhart lake area.  Not sure if other people are tight lipped or what?  I'm there next Saturday and Sunday and probably won't be back.  Most likely will catch and release too.  Just thought I'd fish while the Wife is going over to Sheboygan for work.  Thanks again for the information!!

Not from that area, so I'm not sure about tight lipped people, but I would assume that a lot of folks head to Green Bay for the action there...or Winnebago.  Mir also want to try lake-link.com, as that site has way more individual lake reports, and is frequented by wisconsinites more than IS.

Good luck
