Lake Michigan is Frozen
Well Lake Michigan is starting to freeze up. The Harbors are locked in tight. The count down begins until the ice moves out and the boats go back in the water. I’m hoping to be fishing some time in February but with all the cold weather might be March. Crossing my fingers. Either way I […]

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

30 Pound King Salmon Caught Off Chicago
