The 2026 charter fishing season on Lake Michigan is shaping up to be a great one. Based on experience, whenever we have a colder than normal winter in the Chicago/northern Illinois area, that only means really good salmon fishing especially in the spring months out of North Point marina in Winthrop Harbor. If you have not experienced it, Coho fishing in the spring months of late April thru mid June can be some of the best in the country. Coho salmon are known not only as some of the best eating fish that swim in the great lakes, but some of the best eating fish period. Numbers are best for these tasty fish out of North Point marina in Winthrop Harbor during the period of April thru June. Don’t miss the charter boat Breezy 1 and call last minute to find out we have no openings or the Coho salmon run has past.
