Fishing Charter Locations on Lake Michigan

Fishing in Lake Michigan offers a dynamic experience with a variety of target species that keep anglers coming back year after year. The lake is known for its thriving populations of Chinook (king) salmon, coho salmon, lake trout, brown trout, and steelhead. These species are most active during specific times of the year—spring and early summer are ideal for coho, while late summer into fall is prime time for chasing king salmon. Steelhead and lake trout can be caught throughout much of the season, especially when water temperatures shift and baitfish move closer to shore.

Productive fishing hotspots include offshore waters near Kenosha, reef structures, and temperature breaks that hold bait and draw big predators. Trolling with spoons, flies, or flashers is a proven method, and mornings often deliver the best action when the lake is calm and fish are actively feeding. Whether you're new to the sport or chasing your next trophy, Lake Michigan offers some of the best multi-species freshwater fishing in the region.
