Ice Fishing Tips -Check your local regulations! > Salmon

Smelt and the chasing salmon?

<< < (2/2)

triple threat:
if your fishing for landlocked salmon look around the areas you would look for rainbows around river mouths as stated and around sand and gravel bottoms. you dont have to be near the river mouths to catch the salmon we get them in the bays where major rivers run into. just keep your baits just under the ice along the shoreline in 3 to 8 ft of water where the above stated bottom structure is located. small shiners and smelt if legal work well for the salmon we catch here on accident in nh. we dont try to catch them but they seem to be alot dumber than the rainbows around here.

atlatics: i don't know what in the rest of the states

look for drop offs; currents; dropoffs that enter flats; on the good drop offs have one tilt close to shore; as always spend time and talk to the ones on that lake you see the most
