10-08-2009 Lake Superior Fishing Report

According to the MDNR

Marquette - Lake trout have started to move into shallow waters less than 70 feet deep just outside the lower harbor. There was rumor of a few coho caught outside the lower harbor area.

Munising - Those out for salmon found the action to be hit-or-miss when trolling out from the Anna River. Pier fishing was also slow.

Grand Marais - When they can get out, boats are still trolling in front of the Sucker River but catch rates were slow. Those fishing off the piers also reported slow action with just a few fish taken each day.

Munuscong Bay - Walleye action was slow however a few fish were caught in 35 feet of water near the north bound channel marker when trolling bottom bouncers with red spinner blades and crawler harnesses. A few muskie were caught around Moon Island when jigging artificial baits or crawlers in 6 to 8 feet of water.
