Chicago Fishing My First Salmon Fishing Boat
The first boat was a 19′ Triumph that we would run out of the Chicago Harbors. This boat was a great starter boat for salmon fishing. The Triumph was easy to trailer and with the back wide open was easy to setup a full spread of rods ideal for salmon fishing. I had 2 cannon downriggers […]

The season is coming to a end. Still a few dates open.
We still have some dates open before the season ends. We stop fishing in October but we start right back up in November once the water has cooled enough for the great lake trout bite to turn on and that lasts all winter long.
Chicago Fishing Charters are still producing
The coho fishing has slowed but the Lake Trout fishing is picking back up. Also getting some bonus Browns.
Slick calm seas and Steelhead. Cant pick a better combo
The Steelhead were biting Far offshore Sunday. Waters were flat calm. Water looks almost fake. Great group and great fishing. Doesn’t get any better then this!!

Lake Michigan Fishing Report July
Chicago has had excellent coho fishing and a LOT of bait. We even caught a monster 18lb Brown trout. What’s interesting is the fishing is pretty shallow and well out side the typical temperature range but there is some cold water. Lots of missed fish and I think for several reasons. First the coho are […]
