Waukesha County Last month Key Milwaukee packed a bright red Chevy Silverado with fishing gear and headed in search of walleyes. Our first stop was the Walleye Weekend Festival on Lake Winnebago (Wisconsin's largest lake), where we got fishing tips from Hall of Fame Angler Joe Bucher. We learned that a successful fisherman needs three things: knowledge, skill and effort. But we also had a blast exploring the terrain in our Silverado.
