Capt. Ken Deaton of J-Lyn Charters reports from Harbor Beach:

Lake Trout are being taken in 70 to 100 feet of water North and straight out from the harbor. Try using plain spoons off the downriggers and boards. Best colors have been green and red, chartreuse and white, silvers, and black.
Walleye are being taken North of the harbor with some limits being taken on crawler harnesses, small spoons and small body baits. Try Gold, perch, and green with red colors. I would suggest using spoons and body baits trolled fast to cover more ground till you find where they are setting.
Steelhead are being taken in 70 to 120 feet of water using 2, 3, and 5 color lead lines off the boards, or try some spoons off the monofilament line with the Offshore tadpoles and put them off the boards. Bright colors of orange, pink or green are working best.
Salmon fishing is slow but a few pinks and coho are still being taken mixed in while fishing for the Lake Trout and Steelhead.
Perch fishing is slow, you might try South of the harbor by the cemetery in 25 to 50 feet of water with minnows.
Bass and Pike are still being taken inside the harbor and close to shore casting small body baits and spoons.

Keep those lines tight,

Capt. Ken Deaton of J-Lyn Charters reports from Harbor Beach:

With the storms and cold front that just went through the fishing will be on the slow side for a couple of days but here is what was happening just before they came.
Steelhead were being taken out on the color lines in 120 to 160 feet of water, don’t forget to try the new Offshore Tadpoles on with your monofilament lines to get them down deeper when using your Offshore Boards. Use the bright colors for best results
Lake Trout fishing was starting to pick back up again, try out in 70 to 120 feet of water on the Dodgers and Spin and glows, and medium and large size spoons off the downriggers. Try green with white, purple and green, and glow colors. Try fishing straight out, and North of the harbor.
Walleye fishing was picking up with some limits being taken North of the harbor with crawler harnesses, small spoons and small body baits. Try Gold and green and white colors. You might try off the North wall early morning and late evenings casting body baits or small spoons. I would suggest using spoons and body baits trolled fast to cover more ground till you find where they are setting after these storms.
Perch fishing is slow, you might try South of the harbor by the cemetery in 25 to 50 feet of water with minnows.
Bass and Pike are still being taken inside the harbor and close to shore casting small body baits and spoons.

Captain Ron Beyer reports from Harrisville:

The fishing around Harrisville has fair to good, start fishing in 75 ft out to 140 ft most of the fish are coming between75 ft and 40 ft orange and black are working well. Some are doing well blue and green all fish taken have been on spoons running clean, this year we are catching some Atlantic Salmon and Chinook are on the rebound. Lake are being caught at all depths Pinks also are near the surface.

Captain Terry Walsh of Termar Charters reports from AuGres:

Walleye fishing in the AuGres area of Saginaw Bay has been spotty the last couple of weeks due to extremely HOT weather, bug hatches, and a mix of thunder storms and very windy conditions. Fishing started picking up again yesterday (Monday) in the 15-17-foot depths where anglers trolled primarily with crawler harnesses. Experiment with blade colors and leader length, as the fish have been very selective of late. Plastic baits, especially the 5/8-ounce “Rattle Tots”, have been very effective. Again, a lot of color experimentation has been necessary.

Good fishing!
