Another good week of salmon fishing. The fishing was not fast and furious, however it was fairly consistent with chinook salmon and lake trout being taken in 100 to 140 foot of water. By Sunday, the water had cooled and some salmon were caught in 60 to 40 foot of water. Catches ranged from 7 to 15 fish, depending on how many hits you missed. The fish ranged in weight from 7 to 18 pounds with the salmon averaging about 10 pounds. The perch fishing was very good early in the week in 30 to 35 foot of water and then as the week progressed the perch moved out to 45 and then 50 to 65 foot. By the weekend the perch bite had slowed with most boats in 40 foot but scattered from Holland to Saugatuck.

The best method during the week continues to be flashers and flies on divers, copper and downriggers. Wire divers, 300 and 200 foot of copper and the downrigger at 100 foot produced with silver, white/glow, glow/green echip flashers and the Rapture green dude and wild fern flies continued to dominate. We also took some salmon on 200 foot copper with mixed veggie Stingray and Silver Horde plugs (green glow and white glow).

Check back and find out where the salmon are congregating. For information and charter reservations email me at [email protected].
