Was up in Wisconsin for the summer working and took some time to fish this lake. Fishing was average to bad. Didn't find any big ones but was able to find a few dinks. Fishing wasn't great but the peacefulness of the lake was very nice.

Firefly lake is in my opinion probably the best lake to fish if you like a nice peaceful and quite time. With the loons and wildlife this lake does hold some nice smallmouth bass which are caught in about 30' of water. There is some decent size panfish and trout which can provide some good action as well. You can only fish this lake by canoe or small jon boat. Firefly lake also has the most beautiful campground in the state.
