[Jarrid Houston]

Wanted to start a new topic to keep you all up to speed on fishing happenings going on around the Twin Ports areas.  As always, feel free to get a hold of me if you have questions or anything. 

Like to start out and let you all know to mark your calendars for November 18th.  Marine General will be having the annual turkey fry day.  This is a great event to get the ice fishing talk hot n heavy!!! 

Another date to mark down will be the Duluth Ice Fishing Show (December 11th-13th).  Getting pumped! Bring It, bring on the ice!!! 

Tight Lines from the Twin Ports,

We have an ice fishing report from Superior based Clam Pro Jarrid Houston. Enjoy!
"Duluth/Superior and Lake Superior have had good bites, sometimes great bites.... Just like always, we are putting in the time on the water to find fish, but in the end its almost like the karma pays off! The inland lakes have been the best producing fish bite for Gills and Crappies, but we have also found great success with good pike/bass and the occasional walleye as well. Fishing shallower waters have been the best for us, but the crappies have moved to deeper basins. So as always electronics are key! St Louis River has had a very up and down bite this ice season, but again, put in the time and you will be rewarded. Best bites have been the early morning and later afternoon time frames. Jigging next to a dead stick has been the go-to method for success. We have caught some nice walleyes and the occasional Burbot or Sturgeon as well. We are looking forward to the end of ice season where the big walleyes will start to stage for the annual spring run. Lake Superior has been a very fun bite, but some days we log many hours before we see action. Brown Trout continue to follow ice growth at near shore locations. This year will not allow for the massive areas of fishable ice like we have had the last few seasons, so we are stuck fishing the usual spots. We have found good success with whitefish, Lakers and Splake as well. Extreme caution should still be exercised on the Gitch because of poor ice condition this year. Best to check with a bait shop or guide to check up on the latest conditions."
Houston's Guide Service will be at the 50th Duluth Boat, Sport, Travel & RV Show on February 17th - 21st presenting seminars daily of St Louis River Fishing and Lake Superior Fishing.

After last weeks trip to the NW Sports Show, I would like to spend my weekend angling, but the weather is not the best up here, so you can find us at our usual booth at the Douglas County Fish N Game Show at the Wessmen Arena in Superior.  Stop by and say hi.  We will also be having seminars.  BTW, they have the best pork sammies youll find anywhere.  Good Fishing,

Ice in the Twin Ports is growing as we speak with the cold temps we have.  With that being said, we are still walking out on the water.  In the next day or so, we will be bringing the wheelers though..  Most waters are having an average of 5".  But as always check as you go, and don't take my word for it.  Check for yourselves..  Fishing has been pretty good considering this cold front that has come in, but that don't surprise me on account of it is early ice, and fishing seems to always be productive this time of year.  Leech flutter spoons by Clam Pro Tackle have been a great addition to the tackle box and have shown success on early ice walleyes.  Crappies are chewing on the Clam Plastics as well.  Tight Lines and good fishing, Jarrid

Side note, stop up to Mills Fleet Farm this coming Saturday and talk some fishing!  Or go fishing....

Stay Warm..

We are almost done for the year on the St Louis River out of the Duluth/Superior Twin Ports area for open water. It has got colder and we have snow on the ground (expecting a good size storm today matter of fact).  We are going to try and get out a few more times, but the fishing has kind of dwindled down with the suprise entrance of winter. We literally went from a warm comfortable climate to cold!  Fish should adapt and are starting to, so that is good. Live bait has been best bet for getting a few fish and it has certainly been multispecies outings. Although we have not seen skim ice, it is not far away. I predict we will be ice fishing here around thanksgiving time. So not much boat time left... ICE IN NO TIME..
