Steve holds a 26 lb Chinook Salmon caught with Siver King Charters after Milwaukee Charter Fishing

              Steve Lesch holds a 26 lb Chinook Salmon caught North of Reef Point Marina in Racine, Wisconsin. Steve is one of my firstmates for Charter Fishing Milwaukee. Lake Michigan Salmon fishing is outstanding all season long and this nice King Salmon was caught during July during a fishing contest.

              Steve is also on the Silver King Charters fishing team and has been with me for 8 years. He is outstanding at setting lines and when a fish strikes he will be on a rod before it releases. This is great for solid hook ups on Salmon and Trout during tournements but is key for helping inexperienced clients land Salmon.

              All the firstmates on Silver King Charters are very experienced at setting lines and helping clients become comfortable with landing these explosive fish. Charter Fishing Milwaukee can be very fast paced, so having experience at the back of a boat is the difference from a good charter to a great one. You will also land more fish.

             Steve and I have fished many tournaments together with several top ten finishes. I hope to finish first in one this year. You need a little luck to pull this off. But I am confident in the skill level. To be successful in a tournement you must be able to fish many apparatuses with confidence. You never know what kind of conditions you will have and must be prepared for all.

             Charter Fishing Milwaukee Wisconsin for Salmon on a weekly basis helps you to experience many conditions, while trolling for Salmon and Trout. You must be able to use downriggers, dipsy, leadcore, copper and wire to effectively fish Lake Michigan on a daily basis.

            The lure selection and lead lengths are also a big part of the equation. The lead length from the apperatus and from the fly to the flasher are all key. Color is big too and aboard Silver King Charters we have a huge selection of baits to choose from. This helps to be competitive in tournements and really makes charter fishing successful for clients.

             Speed is another variable and probably the most critical. I use a Fish Hawk probe on one of my Big Jon downriggers. This lets me know the speed my baits are traveling in the current below the surface and what the water temperature is where the lures are.

            Charter Fishing Milwaukee I use a GPS unit to store good points throughout the area for the and this helps to stay on top active Salmon with pin point accuracy. All of these items along with experience helps to put fish into the boat, making Silver King Charters successful in tournements and Charters.
