Seasonal Activity Chart
Chinook Salmon
While Mineral Point itself isn't directly on the Great Lakes, Chinook Salmon enthusiasts often make the trip to nearby Lake Michigan tributaries to target these powerful fish. The fall salmon run is the main draw, as mature Chinook migrate upstream to spawn. Focus your efforts on rivers and streams that flow into Lake Michigan, paying attention to areas with deep pools, riffles, and log jams. Spawning salmon are aggressive, so try using brightly colored spoons, spinners, or egg imitations. One local tip is to check the water levels before you go, as heavy rains can make the rivers unfishable. Also, be prepared for some crowded conditions, especially on weekends during the peak of the run. Access points can be found along many of the local rivers, but be respectful of private property.
