Lake Superior Fishing
August 26, 2010. Local fishermen are reporting the Small Mouth Bass are all over the Bay both in the shallow water and deeper holes. Lake Trout fishing is good right now and reports are coming in that the Salmon are biting in the shallow water. Waleye Fishing is good right now in the early morning and in the flats. The Waleyes have been in the channel during the day. A fishing trip on the Big Lake will be productive with many species of fish biting.

Fishing Testimony from Jason Mitchell, Host of Jason Mitchell Outdoors Television.
"The Ashland Area of Northern Wisconsin is a beautiful destination with truly world class angling opportunities. The smallmouth bass fishery in particular on Chequamegon Bay offers some of the best angling in the entire Country for trophy fish. Besides trophy small mouth bass, the area also offers great opportunities for musky, lake trout, brown trout, salmon and walleyes. Great fishing for big fish combined with a community that is clean, pleasant and refreshing." |
SUMMER means many different things to anglers in Ashland and Bayfield counties. Memorial Day means musky season and anglers travel to bigger inland lakes for the chance of hooking a fish that could be 50 inches long. Warmer temperatures send many fish to deeper water where vertical jigging can produce walleye, northern pike, bass and panfish. Towards evening and after dark these same fish migrate shallow and can be caught on topwater lures for some exciting action. Lake Superior in the summer means smallmouth bass in Chequamegon Bay. Bass fishermen hook a lot of northern pike on their bass tackle, and sometimes walleyes as well. Summer’s warm temperatures send lake trout out to deeper, colder water where large boats with downriggers ply the depths.
