サマリー
あらすじ・解説
For November 3rd, 2024, the fishing scene on Lake Superior near Duluth is shaping up to be quite promising, despite the cooler autumn weather.
### Weather and Tidal Report
The weather today is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 45°F and a low of 35°F. Water temperatures are in the low to mid-40s, which is typical for this time of year. There are no significant tidal changes to note on Lake Superior, as it is a freshwater lake.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 7:43 AM, and sunset will be at 5:23 PM, giving you a good window for both morning and evening fishing.
### Fish Activity
Fish activity has been steady, particularly for lake trout, coho salmon, and brown trout. Yesterday, anglers reported catching decent numbers of lake trout in the 20-28 inch range, primarily near the bottom in 80-120 feet of water using spoons and flashers.
### Types and Amounts of Fish Caught
Lake trout have been the main catch, with some coho salmon and brown trout also being reported. Anglers targeting nearshore areas, especially around river mouths and island shorelines, have had success with coho salmon in the 20-26 inch range and brown trout in the 20-28 inch range.
### Best Lures and Bait
For lake trout, spoons and flashers have been highly effective, especially when fished near the bottom. For coho salmon and brown trout, using spoons, dodgers, and flashers in 30-80 feet of water has yielded good results. Jigging spoons and minnow baits have also been successful for whitefish in deeper waters.
### Hot Spots
- **Park Point in Duluth**: This area has seen good smelting opportunities as water temperatures slowly increase, although smelt numbers are significantly lower than in the past.
- **St. Louis River Estuary**: While not directly on Lake Superior, this estuary provides exceptional fishing for walleye, muskellunge, smallmouth bass, and other species, making it a great alternative if you're looking for a mix of fish.
- **North Shore Streams**: For steelhead anglers, streams like the Baptism, Split Rock, and Stewart rivers are popular spots, especially during their spawning run which can extend into May.
Overall, the fishing on Lake Superior near Duluth remains strong, especially for those targeting lake trout and coho salmon. Make sure to dress warmly and take advantage of the optimal fishing times around sunrise and sunset.
