Mixed Bag on Lake Superior: Lakers, Coho, Steelhead & Browns | Marquette, MI

Fisherman’s Digest heads out of Marquette, Michigan onto Lake Superior for one of the best mixed-bag fisheries anywhere — lake trout, coho, steelhead, and brown trout.

Host John Bergsma fishes with Captain Nate Concha of Relentless Charters and Michigan DNR fisheries biologist Audrey Bates. Between bites they talk stocking decisions, growth rates, tributary programs, and the work that happens before a fish ever hits the line.

You’ll see a brown most people fish a lifetime for, coho that naturalized after stocking ended in 2007, steelhead, and the kind of mixed-bag day that makes Marquette a destination.
