August was a very up and down month for Lake Michigan. Trips averaged between one or two fish up to ten fish. Due to the lack of west wind I had to a lot of off shore fishing. It wasn’t until the last two weeks that I was able to put the deep-water rods out and fish under 50fow. The 29th, I fished on my buddies boat out of Racine and even though our batting average sucked we still managed 4 quality fish out of 12 bites. Our four fish were all chinooks weighing 20, 18, 17
