| Lake Superior Marine Forecast | Covers a very wide area. |
| Marquette Area Forecast | Watch carefully if it's from Gwinn, old airport, Sawyer, or Marquette. |
| Animated Experimental Site | Wind, temperature, etc. This is brand new in Feb07. It takes some getting used to but has just about everything you'll need. I use this a lot. |
| Buoys Mich & Superior | Click on weather buoys in Lake Superior or Michigan. |
| MQT NOAA at USCG Stn | This site is near-real time but is unfortunately, located in the wind-sheltered lower harbor. Don't be misled that it represents open water winds. It's a poor location. It doesn't work all the time and data is delayed by at least half an hour. |
| Great Lakes Environmental Research Lab | Everything from surface temperatures to currents to winds, and animated too if you hit Java. Cams and other stuff. |
| 78 miles, 79 deg from MQT | This data buoy 45004 shows wind and wave heights. Too bad it's so far from us. Daily data is pretty useless. |
| Tourville Apts Weather Stn | Private site located in Marquette. |
| Radar U. P. from NWS | Radar loops. Settings can be changed. |
| Big Bay Weather Station | New shoreline wind site. |
| Sandy Knoll School Station | Not the best location and it's down a lot. Often misleadingly shows other locations |
| Au Train ( Munising lakeshore) | Another reference for boaters but about 27 miles east of Marquette. Still, I use it lots. |
| Hour-by-hour wind and temp | Weatherbug for MQT. Click next 12 hours for more. |

Welcome to
Joe's Lake Superior Fishing Web Site, starting my 14th year of logging and BLOGing my Lake Superior fishing trips
around Marquette, located in the central Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I've synopsized fishing trips of possible interest to you and those with my guests. My boat is named "Cooler By The Lake", after our frequent summer weather forecasts
for areas near Lake Superior. I am just a plain fisherman who loves to fish Lake Superior, mostly for Lake Trout. I do not run a charter. There are no advertisements on my site, nor pop-ups. I usually update my reports after each trip.
I think it's been a BLOG all these years, long before it became a common term. Thank you for following us on our
Lake Superior fishing journeys. Other
