My favorite port is Port Sheldon. It's 20 minutes form home and there is fish there. Door Co. WI, Indiana, St. Joe, Manistee are top favorites too.

That must have been you I saw out there then.
We killed during the dark last summer. Even after the warm water came back after the turnovers.

I rig them all of the time in the spring. We slow troll them behind a rigger, as a high line with rubber core sinker or 2 color core, and cast them for the spring coho and browns. Keep the speed down and use the electric if needed to get to the speed you would reel them. Real slow. In fact some days when the bite is slow, slow down and run the slower baits to check for a reaction. The thinfins run great slow as well as hot n tots as well to complete a slow program. Some days that's the ticket after the active fish get chased out or shut down.

Yes, a stinger behind an 8" flasher. A stinger magnum behind a 11" coyote. Match the flasher and spoon and a little extra leader than a fly and with ball bearing swivel.
The tin can was deadly last year with a white and green fly. When they run too fast they act like a flasher. 2.4 mph is about tops though.
For walleye a mag spoon as a flasher in front of a smaller spoon or harness sounds like a great idea!

Thanks for having me aboard.
I am a NW Indiana transplant, moved west of Grand Rapids, MI in 2000. Grew up fishing Lake Michigan for 13 years before moving up. Each year I fish Portage, IN, St. Joe, Holland, Grand Haven, Muskegon, Ludington, and Manistee. I call my home port Port Sheldon since it is only 20 minutes to the ramp from home. Also spent much time fishing in Door Co. Wisconsin in my younger days. A real salmon addict, I hope no one finds a cure. Also a walleye nut from fall through spring. My summer is spent chasing silver though.
I picked up a new to me 17' Crestliner last fall, fully rigged up, go by Treblemaker on the water. Give a shout if you are out.
What is your biggest fish you ever caught on Lake Michigan
