- I was fishing for salmon and caught this big northern pike. I was casting a Thunder stick crank bait which I bought at Park Bait shop. The Salmon season has started. People have been catching them every night now on glow spoons like KO Wobblers and Moonshines.

Great catch!
This guy really is the king of Chicago fishing. Great catch!
Lol. Thanks for the compliment.
You sounded so disappointed when you saw that was a northern. I would have been happy hooking into her. Nice fish
Lol. I thought it was a king salmon at first.
Awesome fish ! Congratulations Jesus!
Thanks Spike!
Awesome job Jesus!
Thanks!
Great pike man!
Man that’s so crazy! Great catch! So cool how those harbors hold pike, and big ones at that. I lived there in ‘12 when we had that freak heat wave in March. Saw a bunch of pike swimming around in Belmont harbor but none like that lol. Sheesh.
They appear to be feeding pretty good in the harbors. They're only going to get bigger. Thanks!
ChiCityYaker also caught a large Pike recently. Nice catch! Always like your videos Jesus.
I did watch his video. Thanks for watching!
"oh its a pike 😮💨😒😒😒" lol
Hahaha. I know. I was expecting a salmon. Either way fun to catch.
NICE PIKE!
Thanks!
We like to fish as a family. The only thing we've caught on the lakefront since we started fishing a few years ago are 1 smallish perch, 2 rock bass and about a thousand gobies.
WOW!!! I didn't know there were any Northerns near Chicago!!!
They are! Every year they are getting bigger and bigger. There are in all the Chicago harbors.
I was down the left fishing with the girlfriend and a buddy. You had that under control like a pro, nice catch man!
Ok. I say you guys. Did you have any luck that day?
No luck that day, trying to get out again soon that way
Well done buddy
Thanks!
Bill, now it’s your turn! Start casting! I’d love to see you do a video catching a big northern ( or salmon) instead of those Dupage county bluegills.
Good luck to you Bill. I love watching your channel too.
Earned a new subscriber here my friend 🤘🏻 I just recently got back into fishing. I’m on the south side, definitely going to go back to some of these harbors, fished there as a kid long ago! Got to fish down in Missouri recently and try out my new gopro, but only landed a lonely bluegill haha. What length of net do you recommend for the harbors? I’m thinking mines too short
I would recommend at least 7' net if you're going to fish the lakefront. Thanks for the sub. Welcome to my channel. I hope you land a big Chicago fish. Keep me posted.
Keep that tip up. Never lose a fish.
Thanks for the tip
Like to fish that harbor, my go to fall and spring harbor, as well as sometime in the summer for smallmouth
Nice. Sounds like we'll probably run into each other some day.
What marina is this?
Would love to get my boat in there and do some fishing.
Do people eat the salmon in Chicago? Just found out you can snag there.
Yes people do eat the salmon. There are two places in Chicago that you can snag. You can find out on the Illinois DNR website.
What’s the best time to go
After sunset and before sunrise. Cloudy days are good. Just need to get out and cast as much as possible whenever you have time.
I kid you not that pike looks the huge on I caught on the lake side right behind the harbor
Awsome. I wouldn't be surprised. Did you release it?
@@Jesus312Fishing Yeah. Me and my dad don’t take fish from the harbor. Can’t really cook it, and he’s allergic.
@@Jesus312Fishingdude I’m still so mad we haven’t met yet😭
When is the best time and when can one fish for salmon in Chicago?
King salmon started at the begging of September and the run will be over soon. As for best time. It all depends but night and overcast are the best times.
@@Jesus312Fishing where is a good place to fish?
You know if there is any action around 31st or Burnham?
Yes and yes. All the harbors are producing fish. Just have to get out and try your luck.
@@Jesus312Fishing thanks!!
What lure does he use?
It called a Thunderstick deep diver.
What Lb line do you use for salmon or pike ?
I was using 15lb test.
Thanks if I see you out there I’ll say hi
@@Jesus312Fishing Braid ? Fluoro? Mono ?
Jesus was lucky. Hooked that rear treble so the line was not exposed to the Pikes teeth. I like 20 lb green color PowerPro braid. Sometimes I add a swivel followed by a 20-30lb flourocarbon clear leader.
@@michaelmccormick1016 I’ve seen people use a wire to keep the pikes teeth from cutting the line but I’ll have to put some heavier stuff on my baitcaster. This 10lb braid ain’t doin it.
First time targeting salmon any recommendation on what harbors to hit?
The salmon are in all the harbors. Try going to what's easiest to get to. The most papular is Montrose but it gets shoulder to shoulder. Try harbor hopping Belmont, Diversey, by the McCormick or 63rd. They all produce fish. Just go out and look for people fishing. She what other are doing. Watch how they land and net a fish.
I fish the same sports but get no northern or salmon
I understand. There are many days I fish this spot with no luck. Keep on fishing!
Man I don't get it I went today to Burnham and no luck I've gone over 6x last couple if years and nothing why do the salmon gods mock me?!
Not just you, salmon fishing has been super tough in Chicago last several years. You need to keep going, do your research, talk to people, plenty of TH-cam videos. It will happen eventually
It takes time. I took me a few years to figure them out. Talk to other fisherman and she what they're doing and using. Just keep trying.

Thanks for subscribing. You'll need at least a 7' net. Salmon will be around for 2 more weeks. Trout and Steelhead will follow and by December it will be lake trout season. Good luck out there. Make sure to get a big net if you want to land a big fish.
