Michigan Fishing Advice??
My wife and I are headed to northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula the end of June for a week of camping, biking, hiking, fishing, and maybe a few more "civilized" entertainments just for her.
We're planning meals for the camp fire and at least one main course won't be bought. It will be provided by me and a fishing pole.
I've grown up on rivers, lakes, and the Atlantic way down south. I've done a fair bit of salt- and fresh-water fishing but the great lakes region is uncharted territory for me. Any tips or advice on species to fish for, baits to throw, tackle to use, techniques, etc. up there would be very much appreciated!
We're not taking a boat, so all my fishing will be with my feet on the bank or in the water. Anyone know when the salmon run? Most salmon species I've read about spawn in the fall, but I think some may run in spring/summer??
