Watershed - Shioc River (WR13)
Shioc River Watershed

Details

The Shioc River is a tributary to the Wolf River, having its headwaters in Shawano County and flowing south and west to meet the Wolf River in Outagamie County, north of the City of Shiocton. This watershed holds the East, West and Mainstem Shioc River and is approximately 53 miles in its entirety. The West Branch of the Shioc River begins in a cedar swamp just north of the Village of Bonduel. Groundwater input in the Village supports a Class 1 Brook Trout fishery- the only known brook trout fishery in the eastern part of the Wolf River Basin. Habitat enhancement (1998) and removal of the sewage treatment plant discharge (2000) should allow for expansion of the population and expansion of suitable water for brook trout.
