Lake Michigan - Waukegan Harbor, Lake County (all postings)

The harbor and close to shoe is the color of coffee and a lot of garbage floating around. Fishing was very sloooooooow. With more rain coming this week it's not looking good for near shore fishing.

bueller? bueller? any current reports? anybody? any info would be great, have a couple of days off next week..

Fished for two hours today with no luck. Didn't mark any perch.

I hope this year is better than last.

I heard the perch are starting to move in. If anyone has depths or info, please feel free to pm me! Thanks

Has anyone been out this year. I am on spring break (insert joke here about the weather) and I am trying to find somehwhere to get a boat and line wet in the Lake County area. Thoughts of trying to jig around Waukegan?

I've gone to the government pier all week between 4pm and 7pm and haven't cought any salmon, using kastmasters (all colors), lil cleos and crocodiles. I've seen alot of guys snagging but only couple have cought one. Last Sunday i cought a pike using a copper kastmaster but it was under size about 23". Where are they? Are they late?

Just a question how is it around this harbor at night I no Zion can be on the ruff side same as racine been to kenosha but waukegan is a lot close being I'm from antioch. Thank you

Fish were jumping in the boat Tuesday night!
