This is a summary based on available information.

Rhinelander Flowage offers strong opportunities for walleyes, pike, muskies, bass, and panfish, helped by the diversity of flowage habitat. Anglers often focus on channels, current seams, flooded timber, and points with jigs, rigs, crankbaits, and live bait, paying close attention to water levels and flow. The cloudy water lets fish feed shallower and more aggressively, so daytime bites can be very good in the right conditions. Because it is complex water, success tends to reward anglers who put in time learning how different arms respond to wind and current.

I had AI give me the coordinates for the launches I had on file. They are not super accurate, but should give a rough idea of where you can find the landings. If no coordinates were available at all I didn't link to the map.
