Hopefully you were able to work out a little more vacation time for fishing this week than I was. The fishing out of Grand Haven has remained very good even with all the wind we've had and it's even provided for some brief opportunities for big kings in the river.

With all the wind the past few days I'm sure you can imagine all the changes that must have happened. In keeping with the year as a whole, the unexpected happened and nothing changed. Fishing is still excellent...
I have one very important note to add to this weeks report...
I'm glad I'm writing a report and not a forecast. I thought I'd better offer a short update as the water warmed up off of Grand Haven and the fish moved again.
Fishing out of Grand Haven right now is GREAT! Boats are coming in with good numbers for fish and good size also.
It's a great time to be fishing in this area of the lake! Plenty of action and some very big fish, 20 - 25 lbs, have been the rule for the past 5 or 6 days now.
Just as things looked to be stabilizing and providing some very good fishing, along comes another northwest blow. Tomorrow we're going to see decent winds from the South. Mother Nature is shuffling the deck on us again...
Just a quick update before the weekend. Fish yesterday and this morning were pretty evenly divided between the 45 and 130 ft depths. There is a lot of bait in the stained shallow waters with plenty of big fish keeping a close eye on them.
Grand Haven---Water is very warm and fishing is still tough for salmon anglers, but best water depth is 70'-130' and downrigger depth is 30'-90' down.
Great news, the worst of the fly hatches seem to be over and I've healed up pretty well! In other news, the fishing remained pretty steady this week but the weight of the catch is steadily increasing.
