Go to Chetek Wisconsin Vacation Guide. Lots of useful info on fishing, lodging, dining, etc. Fished there two summers 2000 and 2001 during early July and hit the rodeo at Spooner while there. Caught lots of crappie but had to sort through them to get limits of keepers. Have a nice 4th celebration with parade but the lake is hectic especially if the 4th falls on a weekend.
