5. Lake Michigan
Michigan | Illinois | Wisconsin
Since the state is divided into two peninsulas, Michigan is an angler's paradise. The best fishing awaits on Lake Michigan, which is famous for freshwater salmon in the fall. On these wide waters, you're bound to get a good haul.
Numerous fishing charters operate out of Michigan's coastal villages. Manistee is particularly abundant in charter captains and we recommend both Riverside Charters and Reel Teaser II Sport Fishing Charters.
