Salmon Fishing On Lake Michigan

Lake Michigan is fantastic for Salmon fishing. Living in Chicago, and having an uncle with a boat, made it possible for me to have many happy memories of fishing with my father and great uncle.The lake is the third largest of all the North American Great Lakes, and the sixth largest lake in the entire world. Because of the lake’s depth, salmon thrive in its waters. On average the lake runs about 279 feet deep and, almost reaches 1000 feet in the deepest parts!Last year my great uncle passed away from cancer. I went to visit him before he died, and we remembered back to all the times that he had taken me salmon fishing on his boat. Going out on his boat is one of the most clear and happy memories that I have of childhood. Fishing is like that.My uncle had a large V-bottom boat with a below deck kitchen, sleeping area, and a small bathroom. I can’t remember the make or anything like that, but it sure was a blast to sail!
