Ashland County Fishing Report
Smelt Report: April 16, 2019:
We still have ice along the shoreline in the Chequamegon Bay area. And Smelting has not yet begun. It’s all up to Mother Nature so we have no idea when the run will start but as soon as we hear it has started we will post it.
Fishing Report April 16, 2019
Carolyn from Anglers All reports: At this time there are fish being caught in the Tributary Streams. However, the water is still a little high and dirty. The Bay is starting to open up; but at this point all of the landings are still iced in.
Scott Bretting from River Rock Inn and Bait Shop reports: We are starting to see open water but the boat landings are still iced in. At this time we are still a couple of weeks out for Smelt season to begin. They are hearing that there have been fish caught on the Sioux, including a few nice Steelheads but reports have been limited. It’s still very early and there is a lot of snow in the woods. Fish Creek is still cloudy and high, making it difficult to fish.
