FISHING LOCATIONS AND SEASONS
We fish where the fish are to maximize the fishing potential for our customers.
Below are the locations and seasons for our highest producing fishing charters.
Detroit River
Best Times: March - May
Starting in mid to late March, the walleye begin their spawning run into the Detroit River. The size and numbers of the walleye in the river from March through May is truly amazing. This fishery is known nationwide as one of the best places to catch trophy-sized walleye this time of year. Unlike inland rivers, the Detroit River is open to fishing during the spring walleye spawning run, making it a truly remarkable fishing experience.
Saginaw Bay
Best Times: May - June
In late May and June, the walleye are returning from their spawning run and can be caught in great numbers. The method is slow trolling using planer boards and a variety of lures and live bait.
Lake Michigan
Best Times: August - September
Although summer is a great time to fish on Lake Michigan, the Salmon fishing starts to improve as the 4-year-old Salmon move closer to the river mouths. They are preparing for their fall run into the river. The target species for this time of year include Steelhead, Lake Trout, Coho, and Chinook Salmon.
Inland Lakes: Ice Fishing
Best Times: December - March
Guided and unguided equipment rentals for inland lake ice fishing are available from December through March depending on ice conditions. Ice fishing trips can be tailored to your needs and range from equipment rental to fully guided ice fishing trips. Call for more information.
