Fish cleaning stations at marinas and campgrounds are also good places to listen up, though you might consider wearing hip boots to wade through the occasional bull chips! There is another option: Algoma’s 24-hour Fishing Hotline! The hotline is updated twice a week during summer and once a week during the spring and fall stream and shoreline runs. While it’s hard to beat up-to-the-hour reports from insiders, fishermen who call the hotline will learn what baits and depths have been producing best in recent days. Anglers in some areas can call 1-800-626-3090. In others, only the local number 920-487-3090 will work. Hundreds of anglers trailer their rigs to Algoma’s marina launch. Others prefer the comfort of U.S. Coast Guard-approved boats run by U.S. Coast Guard-licensed charter captains. Algoma has more than two dozen veteran skippers. Most run boats 24 to 36 feet long equipped with the latest safety and fishfinding equipment. Experienced captains are able to stay on top of the ever-changing movements of the fish. Even if you have your own rig, booking a charter with friends or family is a great way to learn techniques of catching fish that have evolved over many years.

WWW.FISHINMAGICIANCHARTERS.COM Fishing 7 Salmon bit early, often in 2012 fishing Anglers eye a repeat performance Once known as the “Coho Capital of the Midwest,” Algoma has long since switched gears and is recognized as Wisconsin’s top producer of chinook salmon and rainbow trout. Annual charter catch reports and creel census surveys compiled by state fisheries workers show that more “kings” and “steelhead” are reeled in here than at any other port. Some of it is tied to a large, efficient charter boat fleet, but skilled private boat anglers from across Wisconsin, Minnesota and more than a dozen other states also get in on the rod-bending action. How world-class is the fishery? Enough that over the past five years, more than 3,000 different anglers from more than 30 states have wet a line in a nine-day salmon by Kevin Naze tournament held each July! Summer is by far the most popular time to be on the water, but fishing is a yearround activity here. Rainbows, brown trout and an occasional death-run coho are hooked in deeper pools as soon as the Ahnapee River ices over. Come February or early March, the annual spring steelhead run is on. Action peaks in April, but if it’s a cool, wet spring, fish can be found in the river well into May. About the time that fresh-run rainbows arrive, the harbor opens up and small boat trollers try for shallow water browns. Those without boats sometimes score casting spoons, stickbaits or spawn sacs off the piers. Shore fishing is spotty throughout the summer — best when west winds cool the nearshore waters — but heats up again in September and October as spawn-minded Haasch Guide Service Lake Michigan’s Trophy Sport Fishing #1 port for King Salmon - ALGOMA * King Salmon * Trophy Steelhead * Brown Trout * Lunker Lake Trout All Equipment Furnished • USCG & DNR Licensed Charter packages available for any size group 1-888-966-FISH (3474) 34ft. Grand Illusion 2 Over 35 years experience As seen on Discover Wisconsin and Midwest Outdoors TV www.fishalgoma.com 8 Fishing browns, chinooks and cohos move close. As always, it’s impossible to try to predict the best time to book trips for the coming year. If you’re flexible, wait until the reports are good, then trailer over or call a charter captain to see what’s open. If you need to nail a date, remember that weekend mornings fill fast, and early callers get first choice. With the high price of gas in recent years, more groups have been pooling resources to book a charter or teaming up and splitting costs on one private boat instead of mooring two. Of course, the odds of bringing back a cooler full of fillets are much greater when fishing with seasoned captains and first Most of the salmon and trout you’ll catch will likely average two to three feet long and weigh 5 to 15 pounds. However, one of the neat things is you never know what species or size is going to hit next. The mystery of it all as you hold the rod and feel the power of an unseen fish is part of the sport’s magic. The fresh eats are also out-of-this-world good! fishing Last spring, chinooks surprised some lucky trout trollers already in April. By May, it was a bonanza two to five miles off shore for fish averaging 8 to 16 pounds. Unlike 2011, there were no major alewife die-offs and no prolonged breaks in the action until the winds of fall began to blow. mates who are on the water once or twice daily. The great fishing and fast access to the lake has lured boaters from across the globe since Algoma hosted Wisconsin’s first salmon stocking in 1968. Nearly a dozen state records have been set here since, with three of them still standing. A 42-inch, 27.11-pound rainbow trout is one of them, while two that have since been topped are at least as impressive — a pair of 35- and 36-pound brown trout. The heaviest chinook at Algoma weighed 43 pounds, 3 ounces, and stood as a state record for 11 years. continued on page 10 In 2007, downtown Algoma was the site of the a Walldog Wave, an event that literally changed the face of ten historic buildings through the art form of traditional mural painting. Numerous Walldog artists (an International group of mural painters who pledge their time as “keepers of the craft”) converged on Algoma to create and recreate historic representations. Stop at the Visitors Center for a map of downtown so you’re sure not to miss any of these exciting pieces of art. Fishing 9 continued from page 9 fishing If planning a trip for the first time, be sure to bring more clothing than you think you’ll need. It’s often much colder out on the water, especially in late spring and early summer. Soft-soled shoes, sunglasses, sunscreen and a camera should also be high on the list. Whatever you choose, think safety first. Make sure your equipment is all in good working order, and review boating’s rules of the road with an online refresher.
