Lake Michigan Milwaukee Charters Fish Report By Capt. Jim Hirt July fishing is great. All species are active. Within the last several days we have caught Chinooks to 21 pounds on spoons and all the different types of attractors and flies. I have been running the white Spin-doctors with the yellow or blue hologram tape, green flashers with silver or glow tape and Opti-dodgers in blue or green glow with a green edge. The best color fly has been green. Fishlander ultra glow spoons size 2 or 3 in the easter egg or bloody nose color have been the best. Try silver spoons with green or blue accent stripes on the cloudy days. All presentations are working. Half core lead, downriggers 40 to the bottom in 70 to 170 feet and some Chins early in the morning on Dipsy divers set on 1 with 70 to 100 feet of line out. If you would like to get into some 8 to 12 pound dancing Rainbow trout the top 40 feet of water in 150 to 200 feet is where you should be fishing. The warm water is into Milwaukee. We have been setting up in 70 feet of water and fishing out to 200 and enjoying good action all the way out. Brown trout are active early in the day working 20 to 40 feet of water mostly on glow spoons. There are a few Lakers on the bottom in 100 to 200 feet of water on Opti-Dodgers and flies. The boat speed of 2.4-2.8 G.P.S. works well with all the presentations I have been using. Slow down to 2.0 or less for Lakers. Run a speed of 3.0 to 3.2 for Rainbows.
