Check out the Wisconsin Bowfishing website.  This may help you out.

I live south of Green Bay, so I don't have any info to give you on the area.

I live in Green Bay and can tell you your best bet will be about 30 minutes north of Green Bay. Either on the Oconto River or the Pensaukee River. Unfortunately the action has yet to heat up in this area but maybe by June you will have some luck. I'll check with some other local people and get back to you with their suggestions.

thanks for the help. I am from South Africa, but my wife is from Green Bay. I will visiting thee in-laws for about a week after the tournament. I will have my longbow with me, so I want to get some bowfishing done. What would I need to get, as far as licences go, for fishing, bowfishing and small game hunting, if the season is open?

Bowfishing you will need a fishing licences.  There are certain regs for bowfishing.

Not much for small game.  You may find a Trad shoot to go to.

Any action "up north" yet?  I'm heading up to Door County on Friday to hopefully shoot some carp with Ron Lang and Greg & Bryan Szalewski...
