Questions about Salmon Fishing West Michigan Piers
Looking for some guidance on fishing Lake Michigan Piers starting in August. (Ludington / Grand Haven / Manistee)
My Dad passed away in December and my uncle shortly after and they are the two people I would go to for recommendations / guidance on these types of questions.
I want to take my son out to the piers like my dad did with me, but I for the life of me cannot remember the specifics.
Currently have two medium heavy rods with 3000 shimanos - Is this enough?
What do you typically use lure wise? I know it's spoons / blades but any recommendations on which ones?
What time is the best time to start making our way over? I remember fishing near dusk / overnight as a kid but I can't remember the details of time of year vividly. I remember August for sure and more towards the end of September for places like Tippy Dam and up river.
Any help is greatly appreciated. I just wish I could remember more at this point.
