Houghton Lake Fishing Report

March 17th, 2020

I know this report isn’t exactly about houghton Lake but Higgins Lake has safe ice and is still fishing good. It’s a mixed bag report but we are mainly talking about the amazing smelt bite that is happening right now! Good-size lake trout were found on the bottom in 80 to 100 feet. Most were using tip-ups with smelt and golden shiners or tube jigs. Perch anglers are getting lots of small fish. Smelt can be found in 40 to 60 feet fishing with small jigs tipped with a spike.
