OAK CREEK BROWN TROUT - Trolling Lake Michigan

Head out on a Saturday afternoon for what was supposed to be a nice calm two hours of fishing. Well, the weatherman lies and what was supposed to be a 5mph West wind turned out to be a 15mph South wind. Oh well, we made the best of it and came out with some good fish!

Not the “sketchy flicker shad” 😂

Nice guys! Bud Bundy can fish!

[@baccoff3308]

Cool Fish!

Every time you look at the cuts on your hand now, remember, gill rakers are sharp!😝

[@donnya6019]

U were fishing at the power plant in your latest video, is it worth fishing there for the spring cohos still?

[@stanleegora469]

How was the sand bar by the harbour?? I heard it really shallow getting out into the lake

[@CastNReelWisconsin]

Yeah it is not the best. Everyday I see people getting stuck. At the shallowest point it is about 1.5ft deep.

[@dansobko8700]

You think the harbors are any good at this time or next month?

[@CastNReelWisconsin]

They will be good up through middle of May I would say for both browns and steelhead.

[@dansobko8700]

@@CastNReelWisconsinokay thanks, I'm going up to a harbor this weekend, what do you think will be best to use

[@alexmoore5771]

Great video, would love to try n catch some browns. That's the one fish I haven't caught on the big pond yet. Wish boat was working as it should but have engine problems. Doubt I'll be able to get out this year

[@CastNReelWisconsin]

darn, boat problems always are a bummer. I do run charters out there on the lake, very reasonably priced compared to other companies. cnrcharters.com

How slow can you get the troll with that motor?

[@CastNReelWisconsin]

If waves arent a factor, at 800 rpms it has me around 2.1-2.2, 900 rpms 2.4-2.6, and 1000 rpms 2.8-3.0. When I am walleye trolling in the 1.0-1.4 range I only use my minn kota but for salmon those 2-3mph speeds are perfect

[@adamklusmeier3293]

@@CastNReelWisconsin I have the same setup but with the single console. Get similar speeds. Great videos! Tight lines!

[@jacobwinn5409]

Great video man. Went out of Kenosha Sunday. Got 3 Lakers. Biggest went 15 pounds.

[@CastNReelWisconsin]

Nice! Might give Kenosha a try this next weekend to find some coho

[@jacobwinn5409]

Yeah I don't think I went down the shore far enough. I just moved here from Michigan. Just got a new boat. Some what new to the trolling game. I was a big river guy back home. But I'm learning quick.

[@jacobwinn5409]

Guy's where telling me to go farther down the shore to the water treatment plant. But I got the Lakers anyway.

[@lloydeduncan3861]

so much for being family friendly

[@CastNReelWisconsin]

I try and keep some of the swearing out, but when your excited and having fun its just part of it.

[@petercygan5222]

Not kid friendly for sure!
