Surprised to see you Eric! Best of luck on this new channel! Gorgeous Coho! OBTW: if fishing a live Alewife on the bottom, use a slip sinker rig and a 24-36” leader, hook the alewife behind his dorsal fin, and put half a foam peanut on the hook to keep him up off the bottom, swimming freely! Leave the bail open with the clicker ON, watch the line! Hang on!!
I did this very same thing back in the 70’s and 80’s on Lake Huron. Playing the wind and knowing the cold water rotation it can cause can put you into fish most people don’t think you can catch till the fall run.
Between you and Joe I’ve learned so much about salmon fishing. Big thanks to you both!!!

@@Ssssssssssssstopi was just there catfishing lol, need to bring my jigging pole next time i go up
Awesome man looks like a blast How many days of west winds do you usually look for before heading out to fish?
Yes sir ✌️💯🎣🎣🇺🇸
What size is the bait caster reel and rod?
When are you in port washington harbor id like to learn a bit more in person.
when is it spring or now? can i try to catch salmon near the shore now?
Looks like a blast! Which Trika casting rod are you running for the 1oz spoon?
Nice work!
Do you guide out of Mke? Honestly, just getting into fishing lake michigan, just hoping to do some learning.
@@thewildbill86 yes you can look up Eric Hataaja BigFish365
How big is you boat and how far can you go in without sacrificing safety?
Awesome!!!!!
Will those gears hold up to river kings ?Love your reels and use them for bass and walleye . Need to find one for salmon
Check out the NautiX!
Awesome video. First clip you're fishing my home port, Sheboygan 😊
Nice 👍
@@PiscifunI've been trolling this port since the late 70s with my dad, never jigged tho. I definitely want to try it now, since I've seen your video.
man MI is so bless compared to southern shores of Lake O, lol. Our fish are offshore atm.
Port Washington? I'm new to the milwaukee area and scouting.
Would you mind sharing the GPS coordinates😮
Lol he posted where he was in the video, a simple google maps search and you can find exactly where he is fishing
Took me less than 30 seconds
It looks to me that he has one very short clip in Sheboygan but the rest is somewhere else very confusing if you move you should have said something
A king pulls out 400 to 500 feet of line?
Just moved to south east Michigan from Kentucky and god I want to experience this kind of fishing so bad
It's about that time, do you have anything planned in the next month?
It’s a blast!
You’re right by the Detroit river which is one of the best walleye fishing in the world
@@djfglobal3377 very true. I love jigging for walleye in the Detroit River, but jigging kings is a very different experience
slammed my first salmon in that bay
