Guide To Fishing On Lake Huron

The second largest Great Lake, Lake Huron covers 23,000 square miles and has 3,830 miles of shoreline. Not only is this fishery grand in size, it is also grandiose in fishing opportunities. Salmon, walleye, perch and trout are among the big draws for chartered fishing trips, but this amazing lake also serves up bass, catfish, muskie, pike and sunfish. It would be difficult to find an area that did not support schools of sport fish.
