Although it has a steady current and wild appearance, the lower Wolf River lacks the rough water characteristics of its upper stretches. The river is well-known for spring walleye and white bass fishing. Public landings are located in Shawano, Shiocton and New London. In the New London area, beginners can rent fiberglass canoes and tubes for family fun on both the Wolf and Little Wolf rivers. A trip down the lower Wolf can be continued through Lakes Poygan and Butte des Morts to Lake Winnebago.
