Summer…or is it???

The fishing in Ludington is gaining ground….Its been mostly an offshore bite for a mixed bag of Steelhead,Kings and Lake Trout. For the most part the most consistent fishing has been about 10 miles plus west of Ludington. Fishing a mix of high lines with brighter spoons for steelhead and a few meat rigs out for Kings. If you hit a couple fish in an area it helps to turn and circle those fish, they have been in smaller groups. Not filling the cooler by any means, but we are getting decent catches.

If we ever get a good solid weather pattern with south- south west winds look for the King fishing to really take off. It seems like we get 1-2 days of decent weather, then followed by some type of front moving through….plenty of rain this year.

Hot spoons….oranges up high on short copper and lead cores.

UV meat rigs and white, chrome and blue flashers baited with the familiar bite herring strips. Fished 50-150′ down.
