    Windy AI 08 July 2026
    Lake Pepin is a 21-mile natural widening of the Mississippi River straddling Wisconsin and Minnesota, one of the largest natural lakes on the Mississippi and a famous multi-species fishing destination. It supports walleye, sauger, smallmouth bass, and largemouth bass in the historic river-lake that has been a commercial and recreational fishing destination since the early settlement of the upper Midwest. Spot Features: Lake Pepin is a natural widening of the Mississippi River in Pierce County, Wisconsin and Wabasha County, Minnesota, 21 miles long and 2.5 miles wide, created by sediment deposits from the Chippewa River. Walleye and sauger are targeted by trolling and jigging in the main river channels, smallmouth bass along the rocky shoreline with crankbaits and jigs, largemouth in the weedy backwaters. Seasonality: Walleye and sauger are the primary sport fish at Lake Pepin, with peak fishing in spring during the spawning period and in fall. Smallmouth bass are most aggressive in the rocky, clear sections in late spring and summer. Largemouth bass peak in spring during spawning. Lake Pepin is a famous walleye destination on the Upper Mississippi River.
