Lake Superior enjoys a reputation for some of the best freshwater fishing in the world, and hopping aboard a Duluth fishing charter is a great way to explore it. This Minnesota town is a Midwest fishing haven, and with over 80 species living in the waters around it, it’s no surprise! Visit at any time of the year, and you’ll find yourself never wanting to leave.
Duluth is a historic port sitting on the edge of the biggest freshwater lake in the world, so it’s only natural that there are so many fish species you can target here. The most popular ones anglers tend to go after are definitely Coho and Chinook Salmon, as well as Lake Trout. Walleye, Musky, Pike, Bass, Catfish, and Crappie are also all in the cards.
When it comes to planning your trip in Duluth’s waters, it all depends on what you’re looking for. A half day trip is a great way to get familiar with the area or take the family for some fun in the sun. If you’re looking for a serious angling adventure and want to fill your bags, opt for a full day trip. And you can also pick from one of the specialized trips on offer if you have a specific species in mind.
The best thing about fishing in Duluth is how accessible it is. You can easily find a charter to take you out wherever you go. Minnesota Point and Canal Park are great options to embark on a Lake Superior trip, while Rice’s Point has amazing access to the St. Louis Bay and River.
