Lake Michigan Milwaukee fish report

Wednesday the 27th and Thursday the 28th we had good to above average numbers mostly on Brown trout in the 3-9 pound size with some larger Chinooks 8-12 pounds. Inside the harbor and along the outside of the break walls in 35-45 feet of water is where most of the fish were holding. Action came on planer boards, dipseys and downriggers. All presentations were working. We worked the surface down to 32 feet. I ran a mix of crankbaits, flasher flies and spoons. Most of our fish came on green and white spoons in a variety of sizes. The slower boat speed of 2.0-2.2 G.P.S gave the best results. The contents of the fishes stomachs showed they were eating well, all different sizes of alewives were present.
