WWFG Fishing Reports

Posted: Mon Sep 28, 2009 Post subject: 2 and 3 year old salmon in Saugatuck

Last week produced some very good fishing with catches of 12 to 24 fish per boat. The best depth was 110 to 140 foot of water and some days out to 180 foot of water. Most of the catch consisted of 2 and 3 year old salmon up to 12 pounds with some steelhead and lake trout mixed in.

The best method was 200, 300 and 400 foot of copper with stingray and regular stinger lures (orange corey, NBK, orange crush, caramel dolphin). 11 in. prochip flashers (white/Kevorkian tape and silver/Kevorkian, white/glow, green?glow) with wild fern and frosted fern flies on the divers produced very well. The downriggers produced with stinger lures on the out-downs and a 11 in flasher down the center.

With the rough water Monday and Tuesday, the like should turn over and move the fish around. For information and charter reservations, email me at captron@chartermichigan.com.
