Description
The Fishin' Crag is a quaint little outcropping with a crystal clear trout stream running along side it. There are a couple dozen sport lines of varying quality and a handful of good trad climbs. Like many of the satellite crags, this is a great place to find a project if you can, or it can be a nice getaway from the usual Wisconsin scene a few times a year. The rock is very similar to that of the Qual Wall at Governor Dodge. Awesome in some spots and total sugar in others. As always with this type of stone, give it at least a day after rain to dry out.
Like the stream below it, over time The Fishin' Crag has carved out a little niche for itself in the history books of Wisconsin climbing. The gentle vibe is only complimented by a sort of ancient temple feel that's hard to describe. Unique to say the least.
