Well people, it's time! The Lester river had some smelt in it last night! And my personal and reliable friends were happy to report that to me this morning. The run was from midnight to 330am. They managed to scrounge up a couple gallons. He had been tracking the run for more than 40 years now and this is the earliest it's ever started on the Lester river. So, if the Lester has begun, I'm sure Park Point is going now as well. It's early, so the run will begin pretty lite, but will only get better with time! So get out your fry daddy and warm it up!

The word is that Ashland has began as well! The visitashland.com fishing report came out today saying so. It also has info related to parking and fees.
Good luck!

What are the chances the smelt would still be running in the Lester next Saturday. I'd have no time during the week and need some advice as to leave for my 4 hr drive tonight or wait until the end of the week?

Last night, Sunday, looked good on park point as I saw people netting smelt. I am wondereing about tonight, With the temperature going down a bit, do the smelt ever stop running momentarily? Yesterday's high 47/low 39 and today's predicted high 41/low 31.

What rivers, if any, between Two Harbors and Tofte have a decent run? I'll be in Tofte the week of April 19th. I've dipped in the Stewart in the past. Anything closer to Tofte?
