November Salmon Fishing with Spinners / Reel Michigan Anglers Steelhead Slammer Spinner For Coho

It's late in the salmon season but abnormaly warm November temperatures and low water made for a solid late season coho fishing. I have now officially moved on to steelhead fishing but I couldn't turn down the chance to bank a few more salmon before it all comes to an end.

In this video I am getting more use out of the spinner that I designed for Steelhead Slammers. My goal was to create an all purpose spinner that works for all species but is specifically made with steelhead and salmon in mind. I got the spinner and put it to work on the coho in this Michigan fishing video. Salmon fishing with spinners is fun and effective and it is hard to beat the thump you get when a coho, king or steelhead hits a lure. Last year I had my best day of salmon fishing and caught 16 coho on spinners that day with a steelhead slammer spinner. I caught a lot of salmon on the steelhead slammer last year and this year is no exception but this year I have the added satisfaction of catching salmon of a spinner I designed along with a company I already love and support! Steelhead Slammers quality spinners with endless color options and they are always looking for that next design that is going to up the antie and that is exactly what we did here. With The help of Hyper Vis Tape and Bloop Beads this spinner has the perfect combination of subtle coloration and flashy highlights! You can purchase this spinner at www.steelheadslammer.com and I highly recommend that you do just that!

Michigan salmon fishing attracts people from all around the country who wish to chase Great Lakes Salmon. I drive all over the state early in the season every year to fish for king salmon and coho salmon but fishing for coho salmon is my favorite of the 2.

Coho’s typically migrate later than the other salmon and travel longer distances. Although natural reproduction has been documented, the fishery is largely sustained through stocking. The bulk of coho are planted in the Platte River, just downstream from the state's coho hatchery.

Depending on the tributary, coho spawning runs occur from early September to November. Females excavate redds, or nests, in tributary stream gravel beds. Both male and female adults die soon after spawning. The next spring the eggs hatch and the young remain in the gravel for two to three weeks. They emerge in the late spring, as fry, and wait until their second spring before descending to the Great Lakes as smolts. Once in the lakes, they may stay near shore for a few months, and then seek deeper waters.

This is the fish that really started the Great Lakes salmon fishery. Like Chinook, coho are native to the Pacific coast of North America and parts of Asia. They were successfully introduced into the Great Lakes in 1966, when smolts where stocked in two Lake Michigan tributary streams; Platte River and Bear Creek (Big Manistee River tributary). There was excitement from anglers and fish managers when coho made their first spawning run in the fall of 1967. Since that time, the coho has become a popular sport fish, and many people come from all over the world to fish Michigan's great coho fishery.
