Northern Ontario Shore Fishing

Lake Superior North Shore Tributaries

This Northern Ontario list would not be complete without an area that oozes with lots of shore fishing opportunities. Like its sister water, Lake Ontario, the mighty Lake Superior has a fantastic run of Trout and Salmon every year. Most anglers do not realize that Superior has an array of tributaries emptying into the big lake, and most of them have a spring and fall run of fish.

Anywhere there is running water in Northern Ontario there’s probably good fishing nearby.

Here are some suggestions for Lake Superior shore fishing spots:

Cloud River

Neebing River

McVicar Creek

McKenzie River

Coldwater Creek

McIntyre River

Current River

Wolf River

Whitesand River

Jackpine River

Steel River

Michipicoten River

Sand River

Crazy Creek

Batchawanna River

Agawa River


Trout and Salmon are the main players in the tributaries that empty into Lake Superior.

Surf from the Turf
