あらすじ・解説
As of November 2, 2024, the fishing scene on Lake Superior near Duluth is transitioning into its fall patterns, and here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Weather and Conditions
The weather today is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 48°F and a low of 38°F. Winds are moderate, coming from the northwest at about 10-15 mph. Water temperatures are in the low to mid-60s, which is typical for this time of year.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 7:34 AM, and sunset is at 5:04 PM, giving you a good window for both morning and evening fishing.
### Tidal Report
Lake Superior does not have significant tides, so you don't need to worry about tidal changes affecting your fishing.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw good activity for several species. Anglers were successful in catching lake trout, coho salmon, brown trout, and splake. Lake trout were caught in deeper waters, typically 80-120 feet down, using spoons and flashers. Coho salmon and brown trout were targeted in nearshore areas, particularly around river mouths and island shorelines, in 30-80 feet of water. Spoons, crankbaits, dodgers, and flashers were the most effective lures.
### Best Lures and Bait
For lake trout, spoons and flashers worked well near the bottom and mid-water column. For coho salmon and brown trout, spoons, crankbaits, dodgers, and flashers were successful. Walleye anglers had good luck with stickbaits and crawler harnesses along weed lines.
### Hot Spots
- **Apostle Islands**: This area has been good for lake trout, coho salmon, and brown trout. Fish 40-80 feet down over 100-150 feet of water.
- **Chequamegon Bay**: Smallmouth bass fishing is very good here, targeting rock piles and structures in 15-30 feet. Walleye and northern pike are also being caught along the Ashland shoreline.
- **Duluth Harbor**: Walleye fishing has been good in and near the harbor, with anglers trolling with crankbaits and crawler harnesses or vertical jigging with crawlers or minnows.
Overall, the fall fishing on Lake Superior near Duluth is shaping up to be excellent, with a variety of species active and responsive to the right lures and techniques. Make sure to check the local fishing regulations and carry all necessary licenses and permits.
