The salmon fishery on Lake Sakakawea is shaping up for a promising season, thanks to healthy populations of rainbow smelt and cisco—the primary forage for salmon. While water levels peaked lower this summer than in recent years, the conditions have been strong enough to support spawning efforts, with over a million eggs collected last fall and 300,000 young salmon stocked this spring. Anglers can expect bigger catches this summer, with some fish potentially reaching 8 to 10 pounds as the season hits its stride in late July and August. Watch the full story from ND Game & Fish below.
