- Salmon fishing on Lake Michigan from a KAYAK?? That's right! Although it sounds crazy, it's really a thing and actually not that hard to do.
After watching hours of videos of other people kayak fishing for Salmon on Lake Michigan, I knew I had to make the drive and give it a try for myself.
I was a little early for the King Salmon to begin biting well in the harbor but this was the only window of time I had to make the trip.
I grinded out 2 days of fishing using the Garmin Livescope to locate the fish and a variety of presentations to trigger a bit.
The fish gave look after look but were nearly impossible to trick into biting, as seen on the Livescope footage. At the end of the day, trolling crankbaits seemed to be the trick. Both hookups I had were on deep diving crankbaits run at a steady speed.
Waukegan Harbor was pretty crowded with pier fisherman but the kayak and boat traffic was pretty minimal during the week on off peak hours.
I'll definitely have to give this another try next year!

Just came across your channel. Sweet vid.
I fish Lake Ontario. Fall salmon season is just around the corner. I fish the mouth of a river using spoons,plugs,small flashers with meat rigs.
Good luck this year
I think that your radar has a future to show you fish that do not exist 😂.
Nice video mate!
I walk up and down the pier with Crank baits deep diver's and found out fish will follow your bait and if you drop the bait back slightly in to there face and then pull it away from the fish it can encourages a bit. Good luck out there my brother.
Awesome.
Man don’t you hate when fish are jumping around and you still don’t catch em 😅. I had my kayak out there as well didn’t catch nothing that day. I fought mine of the pier nice video keep it up
Hey man nice video. Instead of trolling you could always try skein under a slip float
Thanks. I wasn't sure where to buy skein. I think most people harvest their's from fish they catch right?
@@americanvarietyoutdoors yes that is what a lot of people do including myself
You should come up for Coho this time of the year if you got a drysuit! Some Big Brown's around as well!
I would love to target some browns some day.
Try fishing spawn under a bobber.
The ducks are over here 😂
🤣🤣
Cool video. I was wondering which livescope transducer you are using. Very clear screen.
Thanks. It's the Garmin Lvs32. I just tweaked the settings for the water conditions.
What fish finder are you using?
This was a garmin echomap 73 sv uhd with a lvs32 transducer.
Love the kayak fishing videos! I see you're using a Native Titan 12 in your latest videos - did you switch from the SeaStream Angler? If so, can you share what made you switch?
Hi Tim, thanks. I still have the Seastream. I use it mainly for shallow water fishing and where I have to drag it to the water. The Native Titan I use when I'm mostly offshore fishing.
@@americanvarietyoutdoors how did you mount your trolling motor to the Titan 12? Is that a custom bracket?
@@timmayo it's a Native bracket that works for Titans and Slayers.
cool video man, I also kayak fish and I've been thinking about getting livescope for myself do you think is worth the expense?
Worth every penny. Really helps when you can see how fish are reacting to your lures.
@@americanvarietyoutdoors thanks dude is that a 9 or 10 in screen? i want the ten in.
@@rodrigoelgu its actually only the 7 inch that I already had before the livescope transducer. I'd love a 10" screen though, but the 7 inch works better than I expected.
