Coho Salmon
Chasing Coho Salmon near Marquette? You're in for a treat! Lake Superior offers a unique nearshore fishery for these acrobatic fish. Focus your efforts on the spring and fall runs as the Coho stage near the mouths of rivers like the Carp and Chocolay, preparing to spawn. The water near Marquette warms slower than other Great Lakes regions, so the bite can extend later into the season. Try trolling spoons or casting spinners in the harbors and near breakwalls, paying attention to water clarity. A local tip: many anglers find success launching from the Marquette Lower Harbor and working the shoreline south towards Shot Point. Be mindful of the often-unpredictable Lake Superior conditions; always check the marine forecast before heading out. The Coho here are known for their aggressive strikes, so hold on tight!
