Lake Michigan Outdoor Fishing Report 8.3.09
« on: August 04, 2009, 07:33:50 AM »

Sheboygan Co.
    In Sheboygan anglers on the end of the south pier have been catching chinooks on spoons and alewives. Sheboygan trollers have been taking mostly chinooks and a few rainbows, but fishing has been slow overall. The best catches have been 20 to 50 feet down in 60 to 100 feet of water on a variety of spoons and J-plugs.

Ozaukee Co.
    Shore anglers in Port Washington have been catching perch in the west slip and off the end of the pier on jigs. Pier anglers have also been catching a few chinooks and coho on alewives and spoons, and shore anglers near the power plant have been taking browns. Trollers out of Port have reported chinooks, coho, and rainbows taken 20 to 40 feet down in 40 to 80 feet of water, with spoons and J-plugs producing the most fish.

Milwaukee Co.
    In Milwaukee shore anglers looking for perch have been catching a few on minnows off the end of McKinley pier, off Cupertino pier, and in Bender Park. Boats near the Oak Creek Power Plant and at the boils continue to catch perch on minnows. McKinley pier has also produced some late night chinooks taken on glow-in-the-dark spoons, and browns have been caught behind the Summerfest grounds. Trolling out of Milwaukee continues to be relatively slow, although most chinooks have been taken 20 to 30 feet down in water 50 to 70 feet deep. Action has been more consistent south of the city, off of Grant Park.

Racine Co.
    Shore fishing in Racine has been spotty for perch anglers, but boaters have been able to find some perch on minnows or crab tails along the ends of the breakwall and off the rocks near the DeKoven Center. Trollers out of Racine have been finding coho, rainbows, and chinooks off Wind Point in 30 to 40 feet of water early and 40 to 60 feet of water later in the morning. Glow-in-the-dark spoons and J-plugs have been producing, as well as white or green spoons and white flashers coupled with aqua flies.

Kenosha Co.
    In Kenosha perch anglers fishing from shore have been catching good numbers early in the morning from both the north and south piers as well as in Southport Marina. Boats looking for perch have also been catching decent numbers along the rock breakwall and at the bubbler. Minnows and crab tails have produced the most perch. Kenosha trollers have been catching fair numbers of chinooks, coho, rainbows in as shallow as 30 to 50 feet of water.
