I've said for probably 20+ years that Eric is the inventor, the OG, the king of jigging Salmon/trout in Lake Michigan. Of all the times I've done this over the years, of all the videos of his I've watched, it never gets old. The one other lure I'd add to Eric's list of three is gold or silver blade baits.
Thanks E.H. nothing better than trout/salmon caught rod in hand! We are so fortunate to live so close to such to the great resource, the Great Lakes, (and) Lake Michigan specifically. Just a wakeup call for the fall season ahead. You made my morning!
Nice video, Eric! Thanks for teaching us!
Those spoons are a winner, they are soooo sharp. All my friend just ordered them from you. I hooked up 5 coho this weekend
Great job, as always !
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks for the tips!
I have been jigging on the other side of the lake from you for many years, always enjoy your videos and always learn something. Have ben out twice this week already landing a 22# King Tuesday. Have the livescope set up as well. On my bucket list is coming over to try for some of those big browns we don't see often on the Michigan side. Particularly interested in trying the fly rod for Browns.
Would love to try this in the Niagara River in Lake Ontario. Trolling bores me to tears. I'll have to wait for this fall and give it a whirl.
Idk about anyone else but these next few months are my favorite time of the year for this reason alone
Cap’n Potato😅 on the Coho😂 Nice job E
Great informative videos. Plenty of action.
1oz Haat Spoons getting the job done in Sheboygan! White and Green colors have been best. Thanks Eric!
So excited for this fall run, have to take my dad to fight some early staging kings
Hi Eric, How do you get your alewives? Are they hard to keep alive like shad? Have you tried other traditional live baits.....say night crawlers? It's probably weird they would bite night crawlers....but if you think about it, why do wallleyes bit night crawlers? Great show. Thanks
Alewife can usually be caught around the piers using cast nets or sabiki rigs, they can be kinda hard to keep on a hook when you cast them out but they stay alive for a while.
That looks like a lot of fun. I’d rather watch you catch fish like that then the guys trolling centerpins and orange boards
Great video thanks
Thanks
Great video as always. What is the name of your 4 rod holder set up you have on the gunnels??
Love your videos Eric! I had a few questions.
1.Why don't you use a spiral wrapped bait-casting rod for jigging as they are much better with techniques that introduce slack.
2.What is the length of the spoons that you are using? Do you make them glow in the dark for night fishing?
3.Does the Jigging stroke length and cadence vary with respect to the time of the day ?
4.Is there any pattern that these fish follow during Aug -Sep when they frequent river mouths?
5.While shore fishing for Salmon at night do you think ribbed paddle tails would be a good choice ? specially black? I often see stripped bass fishermen always use black for night fishing however great lakes salmon fishermen always use glow in the dark stuff.
I am a shore angler based out of Toronto Canada, and these questions are in the context of shore casting for kings.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
First comment!
Is that the 300 or 400 baitcaster reel. Thanks. Another awesome video.
Really nice 🙂 Cohos!! Good to see that size 😉!! Browns looking good as usual 😃! Say why the clipped fin on the One Brown Trout?? Ps, who's that in the picture!!
how does one get the ability to go fishing with you? I'm in the Kenosha area and i have been watching for years. I'm a salmon/trout fisherman since i moved here 5 years ago. I only harbor/pier fished and only caught a handful of fish over that time. Your personality is a delight and I would really enjoy learning from you
I’m was at Waukegan Harbor today. Marked a lot but not a single bite. Do you think it’s worth the drive to come out to Milwaukee next weekend? Im new to the area and today was my first day on the lake, also I’m on a kayak so I’m just looking for a good harbor to fish
Will these strategies work right around the piers of Michigan city?
Could you show the differences of the brown, steelhead, coho, and king in side by side frames? They seem so similar and shiny silver at a glance. I know kings and the black mouth is about it. The brown seems spottier when all silver. Unless they are all gold and brown with the blue and red dots is easier.
For the plastics, are you basically using a straight retrieve with a few pops here and there?
When your jigging the soft plastic, are you bouncing it if the bottom?
Same with the jigging spoon?
That was an awesome beat down session.
On your live bait rod, how far down do you set the bait and you think skein would work also?
Skein is killer!!
How long can you catch them in the harbor for before they start running up river? Late September?
What rod are you pairing with your Piscifun 4000?
How do you like that Hyde vest?
Is that the lime crush with blue UV tape?
Excellent video Eric, what was the name of plastic you were using? What type of jig were you using with the plastic. Thanks Mark
Nishine
Whats hooks work good with 2oz spoon for kings?
Are you dropping your bait rod all the way to bottom?
What brand of darter head jig do you use? I’m having trouble finding one strong enough
Gamakatsu darter heads are great
How do you catch the Alwives?
You can tell this isnt michigan side. There isnt 75 boats in the background. Always surprizes me how little pressure is on the west side of the lake compared to michigan side
What kind of of swimbait jig head is he using?
Beautiful fish! 👍👍
But if you could quit that yelling and screaming around all the time your video's would be more enjoyable.
At a certain point it's getting really annoying and irritating. One can exaggerate...
