Lake Superior around the end of May???

[Walleye_king]

Looks like towards the end of may will be the first chance we are going to get to hit the big lake. Weather permitting, where would be a good place to start?

I have downriggers (not installed yet) and inline boards with a ton of cranks, but I'll get some spoons as well.

As far as the boat goes, we have a Skeeter 1790 tiller with a 75 yamaha 4 stroke. It handles great on big water, but I've never put it on anything bigger than Red- Mille Lacs, so wind may be a factor. Being new to doing the big lake on our own, we are going to start small and get a feel for it.

Will the trout/salmon still be on the surface that time of year?

Which is better, 2 harbors or duluth?

Thanks again-

Michael

Most will be fishing trolling boards or a combination of boards and downriggers. Fish tend to be less deep early (May and June) and go deeper as the lake warms. Just cover a variety of depths and presentations and when you find what works, go with it. If you can find where the baitfish are, that is a good place to start
