  • Summary

  • As of September 29, 2024, the fishing scene on Lake Superior near Duluth is looking promising, despite the transitioning weather. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    **Weather and Conditions:**
    The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 58 degrees Fahrenheit and a low of 45 degrees. Water temperatures are still in the 60s to mid-70s, with cooler water found deeper down.

    **Sunrise and Sunset:**
    Sunrise is at 7:07 AM, and sunset will be at 6:53 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 decent catches of various fish species. Anglers reported catching coho salmon ranging from 20 to 26 inches, along with some brown trout and splake. Lake trout fishing has been good, particularly in the deeper and cooler waters.

    **Fish Caught:**
    - Coho salmon: 20-26 inches
    - Brown trout: 20-28 inches
    - Splake: 15-20 inches
    - Lake trout: 20-25 inches

    **Best Lures and Bait:**
    For lake trout, spoons and flashers are working well near the bottom in 100-180 feet of water. For coho salmon and brown trout, try using smaller spoons and crankbaits. Walleye anglers have had success with stickbaits and crawler harnesses along weed lines.

    **Hot Spots:**
    - The area near the Apostle Islands has been productive for lake trout and coho salmon.
    - The waters west of Port Wing are good for walleye, using smaller spoons and crankbaits.
    - The harbor area in Superior has seen good catches of walleye, with anglers trolling with crankbaits and crawler harnesses.

    Overall, it's a great time to be out on Lake Superior, with many fish species active and responding well to the right lures and bait. Enjoy your day on the water
