"h2o" lives for salmon fishing: The way i do it is pick the best days, go to Port Sanilac Harbor, launch my flat bottom John boat about 4-5 p.m.. electric motor to near the middle of the harbor anchor. Set up a couple of rods with spawn, sit there on guard duty. Than as the sun goes down out comes the Glow in the dark Cleo's, And the 150 foot cast's. I'm all set up with camera flash's, spot light, BIG NET, ect. Nothing like battleing the Kings, Coho's, Brown Trout, and Steelhead in the protected harbor. Good food right there, a bait store. There's been many times i've had the harbor to myself during the week. Enough light there to see rather well. We'll venture out of the harbor in the bigger boats on the nice days troll around and do that. But it's hard to beat the John boat sitting so low to the water, it's kinda like a belly boat. It's easy to just sit there and the fish is doing all it's tricks to try and get free. Being in that boat allows you to just let the fish do what it wants and you don't have to move as all you do is keep the rod tip in the water and the fish goes around the boat. Nothing to get hung up on as they do there tricks to get off. Usually i'll fish to mid-night -- one a.m. depending on action. But what a riot, talk about line ripping, bull doggin, flying , left, right, up, down, spin around. If you never tryed this you can only wonder how fantastic it really is. Anyone wanting to cast for salmon in Sanilac and have any Question's Just howler. You don't need a boat either as the breaker walls are ideal for casting for them. Just a short walk and your there, plenty of parking and food, gas, stores, all the stuff you might want.
h2o<--- end of sept. and oct are best there.
