  2. I'm going to have my boat docked at Manistee, this is my first year salmon fishing,so I need some advise on timing. My son lives in Florida and I want to have him fly in for a week of fishing, in the spring the weather can be a big factor, and could keep us on the dock. so I'm thinking the summer is the best time to have him come up. Any advise that anyone has would help me out. I only have a 21ft. boat, so weather is the big question. Thanks propman
