Be watching for the nighthawk migration. The migration lasts about a week in northern Wisconsin, but continues into early September in the central part of the state. Nighthawk migrations are very predictable and they can usually be found moving south on or about August 15 and they can be expected to return about May 10. Panfish are still biting, especially in the early morning and late afternoon hours. Game fish are a bit more elusive as anglers are waiting for cooler weather later this month to lower water temperatures.
Water levels remain good on area rivers and streams.
The summer berry crop is looking good. Blackberries will be abundant in many areas as summer rains and average temperatures have helped bring the crop to maturity. The acorn crop looks about average. Deer can be seen in abundance especially in the early morning and dusk hours. Lake trout still remain active and anglers are bringing in some catches as they are fishing for salmon.
