Well, hey there! Let me tell ya about fishin’ in Duluth, ya know? It’s somethin’ else. Folks always askin’, “When them fish gonna bite?” I say, it depends, it always depends!
Fishin’ Spots and When to Go
Now, you got places like Lester River. I heard tell some folks catch fish there. They got this app, ya know? On them phones, smart folks use ’em. Tells ya when the fish are bitin’. Same goes for Fish Lake Reservoir and that Duluth Harbor Basin. Never been there myself, but the app, it knows, I guess. They say it helps ya find fishin’ spots too. Handy, if you’re into that newfangled stuff. The app probably tells you the best hours to go fishin’, but honestly, I just go when the sun feels right, ya know? Early mornin’ or late evenin’, that’s my kinda time.
What Kinds of Fish You Can Catch
Now, what kinda fish you catchin’? That’s important. Heard tell they got them lake trout. Big fellas, they are. Coho salmon too, them silvery things, they jump and fight somethin’ fierce. And walleyes, oh my, them walleyes taste mighty fine fried up with some butter and a little salt and pepper. Just yesterday, folks were catchin’ a whole bunch of ’em. Lake trout was bitin’ good they said. So, if you’re lookin’ for somethin’ to catch, them’s the ones to go for. But I tell ya, any fish is a good fish if you ask me. It’s all about gettin’ out there and enjoyin’ the quiet, ya know?
- Lake Trout – Big and strong, good fight in ’em.
- Coho Salmon – Silvery and jumpy, fun to catch.
- Walleyes – Tastes real good, perfect for fryin’.
Summer Fishin’ is the Best
Summer, that’s when the fishin’ is good, real good. Lake Superior, she’s somethin’ else in the summer. But sometimes, that water gets warm, and them fish, they go deep. Smart fellas, them fish. They know where it’s cool. But don’t you worry none, there’s still plenty to catch. And even when summer starts to fade, the fishin’ stays good right into fall. It’s a blessin’, it truly is.
Duluth Fishin’ Reports
Now, there’s these things called “fishin’ reports.” Folks write ’em up, tell ya what’s bitin’ and where. Like for July 2024, they had reports, sayin’ what folks were catchin’. Handy, I guess, if you wanna know what’s goin’ on. But I tell ya, the best way to know is to go out there and see for yourself. Them reports, they can’t tell you everything. They can’t tell you about the feel of the sun on your face or the sound of the water lappin’ against the shore. They can’t tell you about the peace and quiet you get out there on the lake.
My Advice? Just Go Fishin’!
So, if you’re thinkin’ ’bout fishin’ in Duluth, don’t wait. Just go! Don’t need no fancy app or report. Just grab your pole, some bait, and head on down to the water. It ain’t about catchin’ the most fish or the biggest fish. It’s about bein’ out there, enjoyin’ the fresh air and the peace and quiet. And if you happen to catch a fish or two, well, that’s just a bonus.
A Few More Things
Remember to be respectful of the water and the fish. Don’t leave no trash behind, and don’t take more fish than you need. We gotta take care of this place, ya know? It’s a gift. And one last thing, don’t forget the sunscreen and a hat. The sun can be mighty strong out there on the water. And a little bug spray wouldn’t hurt neither. Them mosquitoes can be fierce sometimes.
Now go on, get out there and enjoy some fishin’! And don’t worry too much about what them reports say. Just listen to the water and the wind, and they’ll tell ya where to go. Good luck, and happy fishin’!
