Nemadji area


TRZ II

Recommended Posts

I poked around the Nemadji area this weekend and most of the designated trout streams didn't even seem to hold fish, they were small and very muddy. I did catch a few rainbows out of the blackhoof. Are any of the streams in that system any good?

All the streams within the Nemadji/Blackhoof basin/drainage are stained after we have rain. The streams are good, just not all over.

Not too many people say a lot about where to trout fish in the Carlton County area. There aren't many public land secrets, but you need to get your boots dirty to catch out of the way fish.

SparceBag: Are you referring to the Silver Creek that flows through Jay Cook into the St. Louis or the Silver Creek that flows into the Nemadji?

Into Nemadji by Holyoke.If ya want some nice fish try the nemadji downstream from 23 where rock Creek flows in.Its a miserable,Mosquito haven walk muddy as ever,Long sleeve Humid Terrible walk but It may pay off,A kayak would be the way! I didnt have one when I lived that way but made the walk regularly,And yet recall what it was like!

anybody know if there is trout per mile information on these streams? It would be intersting to know, but thanks for the info. I may keep my trout fishing to the SE, alot easier and it seems like alot more fish.

The latest information can be gained from area fisheries offices or the dnr HSOforum. The fisheries offices have better info in my opinion. Most rural streams do not have regular fish counts, only stocking info. There are a handful of stocked streams.

    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
    • Sketti...  not out of a jar either!
    • Lol yeah I watched that
    • I went ahead and watched some of the MLF coverage.  Wheeler didn’t make the cut but the bigger story was the Poche/Avera fallout.   Kinda funny listening to both sides of the story and putting together the scenario, reading between the lines.
