Catch this week’s episode of Fishing 411 with Mark Romanack, available on The Sportsman Channel. Mark goes fishing on Lake Michigan off the port of Muskegon and is after giant king salmon. Cold water has brought the fish close to shore and mark is targeting them with downriggers, walker divers, planer boards and lead core. The expert troller shows us why it’s important to be on the water at first light and how glow spoons can be effective early in the day. Mark also shows us how to rig and add a line, (also called stacker) for bonus fish. He also talks about when flashers and flies can and should be used. Lots of big Lake Michigan salmon and trout on this episode of Fishing 411 with Mark Romanack!
