: : : : put those spoons away for just a minute..soon as night falls an them salmon are runnin through the harbors try a rattle trap...i use either black an silver,
: : : : blue an silver ,or the glow in the dark...try it out i'm not kidding
: : : Well i was down at Waukegan harbor Friday morning and saw one guy with a twentytwo pounder which he caught on a spoon. Glo crocodile green 3/4 ounce. I fish Lake Michigan extensively and have found that they will still bite spoons. And i have fished side by side with guys using glo rattletraps. I have a few myself but as to say that they always work better i do not think so. I have also witnessed alot more foul hooked fish with the traps. Just my humble opinion and i have caught hundreds of kings. Good Fishing!!! The Finman.
