Milwaukee Fishing Lake Michigan Salmon Report 6/7//2015

By Milwaukee Wisconsin fishing charter Captain Jim Hirt

Big improvement in Fishing Milwaukee!

Out all weekend a 70/40 split on Coho and Chinooks. Badger Tackle Reaper or Vulcan spoons getting it done in the regular size. Our friend and customer Larry Yelick wrestled this 15 pound 6 ounce King.

How Chinook

My first choice is first light with glow spoons. The spoons are best when run 100 feet behind the downrigger ball and 45 feet down. Chinooks being taken in 65 feet of water in White Fish Bay and south of Milwaukee. The only place you will find Reaper and Vulcan spoons is on my web site at http://www.badgertackle.com

How Lake Trout

Action for Lakers has been steady for fish in the cooler. Try long lead spoons and SWR rigs 45 to 60 feet down. Lead cores are also a good choice. Best action has been in 65 feet.

How Coho

Get out the flashers with Howie peanut flies. Some scattered reports of Coho being caught on spoons as well. The surface is 50 degrees and the Silvers are 40 feet down to the surface in 40 to 100 feet of water. Our average has been 10 to 16 per trip.

Rainbow Trout

If you have time and good lake conditions try 250 feet of water for good action on Rainbows. Vulcan OL Sherbet Orange spoons on 2,3,4, color lead core best.

Where!

Fish are mixed up and scattered. Fish the entire water column in 20 to 100 feet of water for the best action. Our best speed was 2.0 to 2.2 mph measured at the ball with the Depth Raider.
