Minnesota Salmon Fishing

Salmon Fishing in Minnesota

If you fish for salmon in MN you are pretty much restricted to Lake Superior and the tributary waters flowing into it. Many of these rivers are the natural migration routes for salmon spawning.

The Minnesota state record atlantic salmon was caught out of the Baptism River. The state record for chinook (king) salmon was a tie with one fish coming from the Poplar River and the other from Lake Superior. Lake Souperir also served up the state record coho salmon. Caribou Lake was home to the state record kokanee salmon and the Cascade River yielded the state record pink (huimpback) salmon.
