Long Lake, Wisconsin
The Walleye Capital of Wisconsin, Long Lake in Washburn County, Wisconsin, is a picturesque 3,300 acre, 19 mile long lake reaching depths of over 70 feet. The clear, spring-fed water, cool deep bays, gravel bars, pristine setting, and miles of undeveloped shoreline make a productive year-round fishery for walleye as well as large and small mouth bass, crappie, bluegill, and northern pike.
But there's so much more to enjoy! Plan some extra time to explore the other natural attractions of the Long Lake watershed.
Enjoy spectacular sunsets, hike in the deep forests, take a leisurely pontoon ride, watch the stars and northern lights, see wildflowers, wildlife, ospreys and eagles, loons and cranes, ducks of all kinds, otter, beaver, muskrats, and deer, or quietly canoe the marsh edges. Allow yourself time to sit back and enjoy the solitude in Long Lake's natural environment.
Need more family activity? Something is always happening around Long Lake. In mid-July there is an antique and classic boat show. You can also go swimming, camping, and biking. Don't forget raffles, activities at the Hunt Hill Audubon Sanctuary, snowmobiling, ATVing, golfing, cross country skiing, the February ice fishing contest, and visiting the resorts and dining in beautiful settings among the trees.
