This is a summary based on available information.
Wilson Lake shares in the Turtle‑Flambeau system’s multi‑species fishing for walleyes, muskies, bass, pike, and panfish, with fish moving between connected waters. Anglers target weedlines, points, and connecting areas to Trude and the flowage with jigs, rigs, crankbaits, and musky baits. The smaller, sheltered basin is easier to fish in wind than the main flowage, making it a good option when big water is rough. For many owners, Wilson delivers a calmer everyday lake with big‑system access right out the channel.
