Little Bay de Noc: Angler pressure has declined. Perch anglers were making an appearance in the upper bay area. Most anglers were targeting deeper water across from the Kipling access. Anglers were having the best success with wigglers.

Manistique: Steelhead were in the river, but water levels were high making for tough fishing conditions. Most anglers were floating spawn. Some anglers were getting their boats in the water and trolling the mouth and river.

Keweenaw Bay/Huron Bay: Most angling pressure was concentrated to the Falls River mouth on Keweenaw Bay and the head of Huron Bay. Catches have been limited while the pressure on the ice declines and boat launches were not open due to ice. Look for possible open water fishing in the coming weeks.

South Portage Entry/ Big Traverse Bay: Some anglers were casting off wave breaks and piers for steelhead. Anglers should try casting spawn or imitation spawn in river mouths on Lake Superior to attract fish that may be moving nearby.

Munising Bay: Fishing pressure was low. However, the anglers that were out were doing well with some limits of coho reported. Best action was early morning. Anglers were mainly targeting coho with a few incidental catches of splake.

Grand Marais: The upper part of the harbor along the pier had areas where ice flows have opened up where anglers could cast a line, but open water areas were limited. The Sucker River water levels were increasing. Open water/ice flows were shifting out into the lake however we are still a few weeks away from any possible boat fishing.

Les Cheneaux/Detour: Anglers were catching a few perch and splake throughout Hessel Bay early in the week, however towards the end of the week fishing pressure dramatically declined due to the loss of ice in the area. No fishing activity reported in Detour.
