We do have openings this weekend for those looking to get on the big lake…the weather this week looks great,perfect for fishing!!!
We are rolling into tournament weekend here in Ludington, so info will be a little harder to get.
The fishing over the weekend was good for a mixed bag of fish. There seemed to be fish nearshore and off shore with no real area producing many big fish. But a good mix of Kings from 6-16 lbs and Steelhead and Lake trout of mixed sizes.
The offshore fishing has been in the top 40′ nearshore top to bottom.
In an effort to fill the books a bit more, we are running a couple of JULY specials, please contact us for more information on July fishing charters!!
The fishing in Ludington has improved the last few days, it looks as if we may have made it through our late “June” slow down. With the cooler spring eveything seems to be a couple weeks behind. But it looks as if that is behind us, the stable weather pattern we are in for the next ten days should help as well.
Pretty typical baits are producing.
Spoons in oranges up high for steelhead and young salmon
Darker spoons fished deeper and on long coppers for mature kings
Meat rigs baited with the Familiar bite herring strips. Brighter flashers and teaser rigs have been best when its been sunny. Whites have been good most days as well as greens. Glow teaser heads have been best.
Be ready to adjust your spred based on water temps and light conditions.
We still have openings for this coming holiday weekend, both am and pm openings available.
The fishing in Ludington has been a little hit and miss for the last week or so. Our inshore fishing slowed last week due to the winds moving the water. The fsh scattered. The offshore fishing was just getting set up. Although it was way offshore. There were good numbers of steelhead,lake trout and salmon out there. Mostly a spoon program with high lines and short coppers and leadcore working best.
Now we have several days of south winds, this should set up the bank and hopefully create a thermocline and concetrate the bait. The Salmon fishing should be better this week. Load up the meat rigs and flashers if this happens. The fish should be down 70′ plus by mid week.
