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.
