I am looking to head out Sunday or Monday but only know of boat rentals on Pike Lake, Pewaukee, Upper Nemauhbin, and Wind Lake. I was wondering if Okauchee, Pine, Oconomowoc, or Browns lake have rentals or not? I am just looking for a row boat or a decently priced boat and motor for the day. Any accurate response would be greatly appreciated.

Also, does anyone know exactly where the boat rentals are on Upper Nemauhbin lake? I know the place I used to go does'nt rent them anymore right off the I-94 highway but I hear somewhere else rents them down the road. Are there any boat rentals renting after this year's flooding and nowake laws???

Okauchee and Oconomowoc have no boat rentals....have you considered getting a Kayak or canoe from somewhere that you can take anywhere for day?

My fiance and I drive a KIA without a mounting rack so it would'nt be good to try mounting a canoe or kayak on the roof. Also when I go out in a boat I bring along a huge backpack full of tackle and several rods. If I had a canoe though I would be out on some quiet lake away from boat traffic. Unfortunately I only get out on boats with friends, family, and with rentals. I am either fishing Nemauhbin or Pike Lake. Pack a lunch, maybe bring the swim suits if it gets hot and I want to go for a dip, and try and tackle everything from panfish-pike. Pike Lake has great walleye fishing and a decent bass fishery with a decent average size on largemouths so I may go there but I love fishing the weed edges and weedlines at Nemaubin with shakey worms.

Thanks for the suggestion Big Musky, you have me tempted to purchase a canoe now. Just dont want to tip the thing, I hear they can be a little shakey.....

I am going to rent a kayak for brown trout harbor fishing this fall...I saw some guys get spun around by 15=20lb browns and I want to try it. Lackey and Joy advertise 30 dollar day rentals.

BIG MUSKY!!! I would love to get pulled around by a big brown trout in a kayak. It like the float trips people take where they hook into giant sturgeon and get pulled around the river in a floating tire tube. Just hope you don't get pulled to far out into the lake,lol.....

BREW CITY.......I never knew Delavan has rentals. Where is that at and do you know there rates??????

woah!!!!!!! nevermind the question about Delavan......

Rates are $50 for 2 hours, $85 for 4 hours, and $150 a day.........That is not in the best of my interests to catch fish. Pike lake has boats for $15/day row boats, and $35/4 hours for boats and motors. Delavan is so darn tempting though.......

Slammed the Bull Bluegills at Pike today so Delavan was'nt needed. And a few bonus fish as well like 15-17 inch bass, and a really large gar. The gar was was 36 inches long......

Pictures are in the Pike Lake fish reports if you ya'll want to see them..... The topwater bite turned on for bass, it was alot of fun....

By the way, sorry I did'nt add this, $150/day for a boat and motor is robbery in my opinion. If I can go to other lakes and pay between $40-$70/day for a boat and motor it is robbery. Paying litterally $100 more to fish Delavan is insanity. I know none of us are okay with paying that dough. If it was my choice I would pay Mr. Haataja to take me outthere, then at least a good portion of that $150 would put me on some fish without a doubt. :)
