Lake Michigan Milwaukee Charter Fish Report By Capt. Jim Hirt July fishing is fantastic. Our numbers of fish per trip have been great. All species are active. Within the last several days we have caught mostly Chinooks to 5 to 20.5 pounds. The spoons have been the best. Fishlander ultra glow spoons size 2 or 3 in the easter egg or bloody nose color are taking most of our fish. Try silver spoons with green or blue accent stripes on the cloudy days. All presentations are working. Half core lead, downriggers 24 to the bottom in 40 to 100 feet of water and Dipsy divers set on 2 with 70 to 100 feet of line out. The cold water is into Milwaukee. We have been setting up in 50 feet of water and fishing out to 80 and back to 50 enjoying steady action on morning and afternoon trips. 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. Good Luck Captain Jim.
