Another blow day update
Big north winds have finally come to lake Michigan, The lake has flipped and there are a few fish pushing into the pier heads and PM lake. These fish will likely move up the river fairly quickly. Late season staging kings are suckers for meat rigs and plugs…big plugs usually take BIG kings this time of year, glow and wonderbread are my favorites. Bigger flashers and bigger flies can get them going as well. The fishing the last few weeks has been inconsistent for sure, but its been fun every day that we’ve been on the water. How many kings are really out there…time will tell….lets hope for a strong finish to the season. Remember we also offer guided river trips for Salmon and Steelhead.
We still have a handful of morning charters available if you are looking for a great time on the water. 231-250-9745, call or text, email @ jkolehouse@sbcglobal.net

Blow day update!!
Just a quick update on the fishing. Yes we are catching KINGS!! and they are big!! Boated a fish just short of 32 lbs last week, numerous fish 24-27 lbs are available. This could be the year we see several over 40lbs. Winds and weather are still making a big impact on fish location, one day they are here, one day they are somewhere else. Tons of bait around this year. Steelhead and cohos are also increasing in numbers. Spoons have been great for the steelhead and coho’s. Meat rigs and flies behind flashers for the big KINGS.

Return of the king???
Mixed bag fishing continues, Although King Salmon are increasing in numbers, numbers are still on the light side. We are targeting Kings early, then dropping gear to the bottom most days to pick up a few Lake trout, copper lines are picking off the occasional Steelhead and Coho as well.
Flasher and meat rigs are getting it done for the kings, make sure you give the new familiar bite herring strips a try, real herring, slightly thicker more meaty cuts that in the past. Looks and fishes GREAT! Chrome spinnies and spin n glos are the ticket for trout, various spoons on coppers have been good at times as well…
Dates are going fast, get ahold of us for a day of fun on the water.
