producing good salmon action between the piers and 90 feet of water.
Anglers are bringing in some big fish weighing 20 pounds or more!
Meat rigs and spin/fly combos were catching the majority of fish.
Kings were caught off the piers at dawn and dusk when using glow spoons.
Manistee River: Is producing some large chinook salmon. Overall; the fish caught are much bigger than the past couple years. Anglers are reminded that the Little Manistee River is closed to fishing from the weir downstream to Manistee Lake. |

Tom & Mary's Report - Cold water was close to shore, 48
degree surface, and so were the fish both to the north, to the south
and in the Harbor. The fish hit a mixture of magnum glow spoons and
plugs from 2-20 feet down in 15-40 feet of water in an assortment
of colors. The fish this week remain large with lots of 20-28 pound
fish being brought in. It may just be that the fish are a couple weeks
late and the next 4 weeks might be great.

Tom & Mary's Report - July Fishing recap report through July 21st: The first half of July: fishing has been very good on full day charters from 12-20 miles out down 8-50 feet. All colors seemed to work on regular size spoons and the fish box has been a mixture of Steelhead to 8 pounds, Lake Trout to 6 pounds, Coho to 6 pounds and an occasional King to 17 pounds. Third week of July: Inshore Fishing is starting to pick up as Lake Michigan is in the process of turning over. That means the King Salmon are moving in with a 27 1/2 pound king caught on Tuesday in 80 feet of water. Regular size spoons in Blue & Green and mixed vegetable color have worked well from 7:30am on with Glows working well the first couple hours . July 21st. Fish were from 35-100 feet deep with medium spoons on Copper and Lead doing the trick. Some boats came in with 15-20 fish, Kings & Steelies ranging from 6-21 pounds. It looks like July, for the third year in a row will have been a very good fishing month and great weather. |
