Coho Salmon

August 2022 Lake Michigan Fishing

Chinook Salmon

We went on several fishing trips during day and night during the August season. We encountered a rainy Sunday night fishing once, but it did not stop us from getting the best bites. We definitely had a good time and good eats with our trips.

From The Guides: Captain Pat: I grew up fishing the small creeks, ponds, and lakes around my house. As I got older, I was introduced to fishing on Green Bay and Lake Michigan by some very dear friends to my family. Fishing is a passion of mine, as well as being outdoors in general. I sincerely enjoy sharing outdoor experiences with others, especially families and children who are just getting started as young fishermen and fisherwomen. Each year my passion for Great Lakes Fishing grows deeper.&nbsp;I look forward to meeting you, and providing you and your group a fun, exciting, and memorable day on the water with Black Pearl Sportfishing! Captain Alex: I am a USCG licensed Captain with CPR and First Aid training.&nbsp;I have been fishing on Green Bay and Lake Michigan since I have been old enough to hold a fishing pole in my hands.&nbsp;Growing up, I spent many summers first mating for my Father (Captain Brian Ebben) and I knew right then that I needed to share my passion for fishing with others.&nbsp;Nothing gets me more excited than watching others catch the biggest fish of their life and share those stories and memories with their family and friends.&nbsp;My top goal as a captain is to give you a successful day on the water both by catching fish and sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm for the sport so you can use it to catch fish on your own.
