Coho Salmon
Long Point, Illinois, offers a fantastic opportunity to intercept Coho Salmon as they migrate along the Lake Michigan shoreline. These acrobatic fish are known for their aggressive strikes, making for exciting battles. Spring and early fall are the peak seasons, coinciding with the Coho's feeding patterns. Focus your efforts near the mouth of the Illinois River and along the shoreline bluffs. Casting small spoons and spinners is effective from shore, while trolling with dodgers and flies can be productive from a boat. Water clarity can vary greatly, so be prepared to switch lures and presentations. A useful local tip is to pay attention to the wind; a south wind can push warmer water inshore, potentially affecting Coho activity. The Coho here are known for their size and fight, so be ready for a battle.
