Was out today with clients and my son also got to tag along with me in the afternoon and fishing was nothing short of fantastic! We hooked about 20 fish in 4 hours of fishing all casting with spinning tackle or baitcasters! .
Kings, browns, bows and coho’s are all showing up so if you can find the browns they can start to be caught now on cranks, spawn and jerk baits. Similar to fishing for kings but in smaller bunches. The Brown trouthere are not that tasty but this is the start of some of the best brown trout fishing in the world!
Coho’s are still in great shape and are stacking up in a few area’s as well. Kings are still very plentiful and will plain and simply wear out your forearms!
Good fishing to all!
Eric…that is just insane!
When is a good time to come out and see you this Winter? I have some customers I would like to bring out there.
Good to see those browns starting to show up, Eric. They’re one beautiful fish!
Good Lord……Unreal, I need to make a road trip sometime
Oh boy
Here we go again.
Absolutely incredible Eric! awesome!
Wow, that is one beautiful Brownie
They’re a whole different animal on the big water compared to what they are in trout streams. Just Awesome 
Awesome fish Eric!
Holy Smokes!
Eric, how long does the brown trout bite hold up in Milwaukee Harbor?
Sully
Awesome fish!
Thanks for the positive feedback guys. The brown bite is just at the very beginning and will get going good in late Ocotober all and last until Mid April. Very consistent action most days fishing for brown with 15-40 fish common. Along with some many fish in the “teen” and occasionally a 20+ lber are caught by my clients each month. This is all done mainly casting, float fishing or ice fishing for them along with steelies.
There is a good trolling bite for these fish as well but if I can get these fish with the rod in my hand, I think you’d understand why that’s my preference.
I don’t know how many more years this brown trout fishery will be where it is, but for now and the next few years it should remain very good!
Take care!
