Fishing Rules and Regulations
The St. Louis River Estuary, stretching from Duluth, Minnesota to Superior, Wisconsin, offers excellent fishing opportunities. Its unique location on the Minnesota–Wisconsin border means anglers need to be aware that fishing regulations vary depending on which state’s waters they are in. A valid Minnesota or Wisconsin fishing license is required, and special border water rules may also apply.
