This small bridge crosses a backwater slough of the merged Mississippi
River and Black River known as Richmond Bay. It is located near a bar
and restaurant once known as the Fisherman's Inn, hence the name. It is
a popular fishing spot for channel catfish. Clinton Street is also
known as County Road B, and it is only street level crossing from the
Wisconsin mainland onto French Island (I-90 also crosses onto French
Island, but as an Interstate highway rather than a street).
