BAMBOO BEND (NBC 26) — The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources has been getting reports of sturgeon spawning on the Fox and Wolf River. They anticipate spawning to be in full swing in the Wolf River system through the weekend, unless colder temperatures halt spawning activities and cause a more protracted spawning period.
On Wednesday evening, sturgeon started spawning at Sturgeon Trail in New London and on Thursday crews saw fish heavily spawning there. Bamboo Bend had some slight spawning activity Thursday evening and was expected to have heavy spawning activity today.
According to the DNR, Bamboo Bend and New London will have spawning fish into the weekend and will likely be the best locations to view sturgeon for the next couple of days.
Please maintain a safe social distance if you are planning on visiting one of these spawning sites. More information can be found on the lake sturgeon spawning page. [lnks.gd]
