Fishing report for Lake Michigan Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Plenty of Coho action on flashers and flies don‘t be afraid to run them deep. The surface temperature is warming up and the fish are moving down. We’re taking a mixed bag of 50% Coho, 50% Chinooks and a few Browns and Lake Trout. A few fish on top with most of our action on downriggers 20-50 down in fifty to eighty feet of water. Look for the huge schools of baitfish for the best action. Gobbly Wabbler peanut flies in green or purple are best for hammering the Coho tied 13 inches behind a 6 inch orange flasher. There are also Chinooks around between 10 and 17 pounds. Big spoons are working for the big boys on downriggers presented from 25 feet to the bottom. The best spoon for us is the Vulcan #3 Fire Tiger or Monkey Puke glow. Slide Divers are also producing fish 30-40 feet down with spoons or flasher flies.[/size][/font]
