Rainbow Trout Fishing in Wisconsin

Kevin found a spot to make all of Fletcher's fishing dreams come true in Wisconsin.  

He took us to B & H Trout Fishing and Bait Shop in Wisconsin Dells.  It's been around forever.  A sweet family owns it and lives on the property.  It's quaint and sweet and was a fun way to spend an hour.  It wasn't the easiest activity for Leo, but thanks to snacks, bug spray and my phone we kept him from falling into the trout ponds.  Definitely bring bug spray.

You check in and pay for every person.

They give you everything you need - bait, fishing poles, nets and clean the fish for you to take home.

I wasn't crazy about bringing home the fish we caught since we were out of town, but they really do make it so easy.  Kevin is in charge of grilling the rainbow trout at some point because that is out of my cooking wheelhouse.

Fletcher was so proud of his catch!  He caught one and Kevin caught one.

We started in the small trout pond, but didn't have much luck.

Leo loved watching the owners restock the pond with trout.  That was the highlight of his trip.

We met a couple other families who were there fishing for the day.  Ironically, they were both from Indiana, too.  We all agreed that heading North for Summer vacation is a fantastic idea!

Olive as helpful with the net.

Do you have any good rainbow trout or fish recipes??

The boys loved this activity so much!
