Fourmile Creek Overview

This Class I trout stream is an outstanding resource water. Originating within the Chequamegon National Forest, the stream empties into the Sioux River, providing a good spawning area for trout from the Sioux River. Fourmile Creek supports brook, brown and rainbow trout and provides spawning areas for several migratory trout and salmon species from Lake Superior. This creek has good in-stream cover, with undercut banks and pools. It drains a large area of forest lands periodically subjected to clearcutting and logging traffic.

The water marked for higher production is located Northwest of Washburn and 13. Take C out of Washburn and Hwy 13. C will eventually cross the Sioux River and then Fourmile. Check access maps.
