あらすじ・解説
As of October 26, 2024, the fishing scene on Lake Superior near Duluth is vibrant despite the challenging weather and water conditions.
### Weather and Tidal Conditions
The weather today is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 48°F and a low of 38°F. Lake Superior's water temperature is in the low to mid-60s, which is typical for this time of year. Since Lake Superior is one of the Great Lakes, it does not have tides, so anglers do not need to worry about tidal fluctuations.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 7:43 AM, and sunset will be at 5:53 PM, giving anglers a good window to get out on the water.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw a mix of fish activity, with lake trout, coho salmon, and walleye being the main catches. Lake trout fishing has been good, especially near the bottom in 80-120 feet of water, using spoons and flashers. Coho salmon are staging near river mouths in 30-80 feet of water, and can be caught using spoons, dodgers, and flashers.
Walleye fishing has been good in and near the harbor, with anglers trolling with crankbaits and crawler harnesses, as well as vertical jigging with crawlers or minnows. Some limits of 15-20 inch fish were reported.
### Best Lures and Bait
For lake trout, spoons and flashers are the go-to lures, especially when fished near the bottom. For coho salmon, spoons, dodgers, and flashers are effective. Walleye anglers have had success with crankbaits, crawler harnesses, and vertical jigging with crawlers or minnows.
### Hot Spots
One of the hot spots is the area from Duluth to Two Harbors, where the Lower Shore clerk from the Minnesota DNR has reported good catches. Another good spot is near the river mouths, such as the Lighthouse Gap where the Rainy River enters Lake of the Woods, although this is a bit further west, it indicates the effectiveness of river mouths for coho salmon and other species.
In summary, if you're heading out on Lake Superior near Duluth today, focus on the deeper waters for lake trout, and the areas near river mouths for coho salmon. Walleye fishing in the harbor and nearby areas should also yield good results. Make sure to dress warmly and be prepared for the cooler fall weather.
