Late Spring Trout and Salmon Fishing in Lake Michigan

Late Spring Trout and Salmon Fishing in Lake Michigan

As the Lake Michigan water temperature warms in late spring, the combination of Salmon, on their annual migration northward and the more actively feeding Rainbows and Lakers, create fantastic fishing.

This article covers the areas of Kewaunee, Algoma and Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. The fishing here typically starts in mid to late May and runs through the summer and fall. At the onset, fish can be found in around 100 feet of water, which is only a few miles off shore at Kewaunee and Algoma and on the Bank Reef at Sturgeon Bay.

All methods of deep water trolling can be employed such as downriggers and Dipsey Divers. Dipseys can be used off of wire lines or PowerPro rods. Another method, which is relatively new, is the use of lead core and copper lines to get your lures down. Lead core is color coded 10 yards per color and each color drops your lure about 5 feet down. Three colors will get you about 15 feet deep, five colors about 25 feet down and so on. Copper is typically run in 100, 200 or 300 feet per reel. Both these lines are generally backed with PowerPro and tipped with floral carbon leaders. One hundred feet of copper drops your lure about 20 feet, 200 about 40 feet and 300 feet of copper will get you down about 60 feet. If you are new to using copper lines, get advice from a dealer or someone who has used it. It is not easy to deal with.

If you choose to use surface lines with snap weights, lead core or copper you will have to use planer boards or skies to separate your lines and get them away from the boat. Run the highest lines furthest away from the boat, and set the deeper lines progressively closer to the boat. This helps a great deal with preventing fish tangling your lines.

There is an endless supply of lures to use for this type of fishing. Typically Pro King, Diamond King, or Moonshine spoons in bright colors with silver backs or diamond reflective patterns are good. E-chip Dodger or Spin Doctor and flies are also used with many different manufactures in many styles and colors. Bright colors with flashy tape are good choices. Faster trolling speeds are typically used in this type of fishing with 2 to 3 mph being most common.

For information on fishing in a particular location, check out the area sport shops, talk to local fishermen, listen to the marine radio or search the internet for local fishing reports. You can find a lot of info on the internet.

If you don't have a bigger boat and would like to participate in this fishery there are plenty of charters available in most towns along the shores of Lake Michigan.

Good luck and good fishing.
