Coho Salmon
Coho Salmon fishing around Harbor Springs can be incredibly rewarding, especially in the spring and early summer. As the water warms, Coho actively feed near the surface, making for exciting topwater action. Little Traverse Bay is a great place to start, as the relatively shallow waters warm up quickly. Trolling small crankbaits or spoons is a popular technique, but don't overlook casting near the surface with spinners or small plugs. A key to success is locating schools of alewives, which Coho heavily prey on. Look for bird activity, which often indicates the presence of baitfish. A practical tip: early mornings and late evenings often produce the best results, as the Coho move closer to shore to feed. Also, consider using planer boards to spread your lines and cover more water. Remember to check the Michigan DNR fishing report for the most up-to-date regulations and stocking information.
