Milwaukee Fishing Lake Michigan Salmon Reports 5/27/2008
By Capt. Jim Hirt
We had our best action working east and west from 65 to 180 feet of water. We started south of Prince Wilhelm wreck that lies 3 miles due east of the main gap Milwaukee. In the deep water Church Walleye planer boards with 2,3,4 and 5 color leadcore with Reaper Magnum Peacock, Fish n Chip, and Big Joe Silver spoons caught Rainbow and Lake Trout. The fish ranged in size from 3 to 12 pounds. We caught more Rainbow this week than any other species. Now is the time for you to catch tail walking Rainbows. There is a great surface temperature break from 50.5 to 44 degrees out in the deeper water and the fish are holding on both sides of the break. The smaller Vulcan regular size Dolphin Green Silver spoons are also working. Downriggers from 40 to 100 feet down picked up Chinooks to 17 pounds, Laker's and a few Coho. No Coho on flasher flies however they did like Michigan Stinger spoons in green or orange. On Saturday 8-inch flashers in green or plaid with green flies caught both Chin's and Laker's. I am tying my flies 22 inches and trolling at 2.0 miles per hour on the Depth Raider. We ran Slide Divers they took their share of fish with 30 to 80 feet of line out set to number one. The only place you will find Reaper and Vulcan spoons is on the Badger Tackle web site at http://www.badgertackle.com Jim charters out of Milwaukee, WI.
