A nice 16lb king caught this evening on the Bird Dog!  

Another happy group out on the 33 foot boat! Beautiful day out on the lake.  

Caught 15 salmon in the morning and 17 in the afternoon today. Fishing remains red hot off Chicago.  

Fishing is fantastic right now! Found some hungry coho this morning. We've got openings next weekend on the big boat. Should have non stop salmon action the rest of the month.  

Another happy group on this morning on the big boat. Fresh coho salmon for dinner! Fishing out of downtown Chicago is hot right now! 

A little late on the pics, but here is Thursdays group on the 33 foot boat. Nice job Capt. Brian Gentile.  

Dates are filling up fast. Fishing has been very consistent. Lots of salmon around! Here's our catch from this morning.  

Happy Memorial Day weekend! Coho are hungry and plentiful in 140-160fow. Nice 4 hour trip this Sunday morning.  

Capt Brian put a good dent in the salmon population this morning. Awesome picture of his new boat!  

Coho are still around! We found them scattered in 140-170 feet of water. As long as the strong winds stay away, fishing should be great for the month of June!  

Plenty of hungry LakeTrout out there today. These fish are great on the smoker! Once the lake and winds calm down, we will be back out in the deep blue chasing Salmon as well! 

Lake Trout fishing is on fire in 40-50 feet of water. These fish average 8-14lbs with an occasional 20 pounder every couple trips! We caught 14 fish in about 2 hours yesterday. The coho are out deep in 150-300 feet. We've got openings at the end of the month. This spring fishing is a ton of fun!  

Since Mother Nature won't let us get out on the lake, we'll share a picture of a good day from last year mid-May. We still have a few openings at the end of the month. Check out the calendar! 

Fished for 3 short hours this morning with a friend. Caught 5 brown trout, 1 steelhead, and 1 coho salmon! May fishing is going to be great again this year out of downtown Chicago! Call us to get your trip scheduled! 

Illinois free fishing weekend is June 16-19th! No licenses needed for everyone that weekend. Savings up to $90 for a group of 6! Give us a call or book online soon before that weekend fills up. 

First trip of the year was a success! 3 man limit of coho salmon and brown trout. It's going to be a great year on Lake Michigan. Dates are starting to book up fast. Get your date before one else books it!  

Fishing has been unreal this fall. The Salmon and Trout have stuck around Chicago all year and are still here! Why Knot is booked up for the year, but the Chicago Fishing Fleet just added a new boat, Storm Warning, a 25 foot unsinkable Boston Whaler Conquest run by Capt. Brian Gentile. His rates and phone number are on our rates page. He'll put you on fish all fall and winter long! Give him a call. 

The salmon are still around. We are getting a nice mix of Lake Trout and Salmon right now out of Chicago. We are hoping for a warm September to keep the fish around!

Fishing has been good to very good. 2016 has been a great year so far. Only a few more weeks of fishing left!  

Here are just a few of the pics from the past 2 weeks. Fishing has been great and should continue through the end of August. We are booked up right now, but we will be sure to post any openings or cancellations on our website as soon as anything opens up!
