     NEXT, MEET JIM BARTELT OF SPRING CREEK SPECIALTIES.
Jim is a specialist in fishing Wisconsin’s Driftless Area and he is a long-time fishing guide who really knows the driftless area and he has some hot tips and great streams for fishing or just for the photography and appreciation of what nature has to offer.
“The Driftless area in Southwestern Wisconsin was left untouched by the most recent glacial advances. The result is a very hilly topography with steep green valleys. Coursing through most of these valleys are thousands of miles of spring creeks that support excellent aquatic insect life, crustaceans, forage fish, and of course, trout.”
