Seasonal Activity Chart
Coho Salmon
For Coho enthusiasts, Sister Bay offers a fantastic opportunity, especially during their spring and early summer migrations. These feisty salmon are known for their acrobatic fights and willingness to hit a variety of lures. Focus your efforts in the relatively shallower waters compared to Chinook, often within a mile or two of shore. Look for warmer water pockets, as Coho are attracted to it. Trolling small spoons and crankbaits is effective, as is casting from shore near the mouth of local streams like the Sister Bay Creek after a rain. The local Coho population is known for its bright silver coloration and aggressive strikes. A local tip: try using planer boards to spread your lines and cover more water. Be mindful of wind direction, as it can quickly change on Lake Michigan and affect boat control.
