SUMMER means many different things to anglers in Ashland and Bayfield counties. Memorial Day means musky season and anglers travel to bigger inland lakes for the chance of hooking a fish that could be 50 inches long. Warmer temperatures send many fish to deeper water where vertical jigging can produce walleye, northern pike, bass and panfish. Towards evening and after dark these same fish migrate shallow and can be caught on topwater lures for some exciting action. Lake Superior in the summer means smallmouth bass in Chequamegon Bay. Bass fishermen hook a lot of northern pike on their bass tackle, and sometimes walleyes as well. Summer’s warm temperatures send lake trout out to deeper, colder water where large boats with downriggers ply the depths.
