About Tomorrow River
The Tomorrow River in Portage County, central Wisconsin, is a classic medium-sized trout stream with wild brown trout and brook trout in the cold spring-fed headwaters. The river flows through a mix of forest and farmland with extensive public-access easements. A reliable choice when the Driftless rivers are crowded or blown out by spring storms.
Regulations
Wisconsin Fishing License required ($20 resident + $10 trout/salmon stamp = $30). Season opens first Saturday in May. Verify Portage County special-regulation sections in current Wisconsin DNR trout regulations.
