Chinook Salmon
While Lake of the Woods in Angle Inlet, Minnesota, is renowned for its walleye and muskie fishing, targeting Chinook Salmon here offers a unique and exciting challenge. These salmon, which migrate up from the Great Lakes, can be found in the lake's deeper, cooler waters, particularly during the late summer and early fall months. Trolling with downriggers or diving planes is a common tactic, allowing you to present your lures at the depths where the salmon are holding. Spoons and flasher/fly combinations are popular choices. A critical tip for fishing Chinook in this area is to monitor water temperatures and clarity; the salmon tend to prefer cooler, clearer water. Lake of the Woods is vast, so utilizing a good map and fish finder is highly recommended. Several resorts and marinas in Angle Inlet provide access to the lake, as well as valuable local fishing information.
