In this fishing video I show you my favorite Salmon Lures as well as the fishing lures the I consider to be the best lures for salmon river fishing. If you are new to salmon fishing this video includes salmon fishing tips and tricks that will show you how to catch river salmon with a variety of different salmon fishing lures. River fishing for salmon is totally different than fishing lakes. River salmon fishing requires a different set of lures. That is an important thing to determine off the bat. The best Salmon Lures for River Fishing also varies depending on what type of salmon you are targeting. I show you my favorite lures for king salmon as well as the best coho lures that I have experience using. I personally enjoy salmon fishing with spinners and that is one of my favorite Michigan Salmon lures. I will show you what I believe to be the best Mepps spinner for salmon as well as the colors that work best for me when picking river salmon fishing lures.
If you don’t know how to catch salmon in the river and would like to know how to catch salmon with lures this is the video for you. So my favorite Salmon lures are Mepps Black Fury spinners, Mepps Aglia spinners, Steelhead slammer spinners, storm thunder sticks, storm hot and tots and little cleo spoons. I also include some tips and tricks on how to use some of these lures as well as which colors I like for salmon fishing in rivers. I am not the worlds best salmon fisherman and I have not tried every lure imaginable for salmon but to the best of my knowledge these are the best lures for Salmon River Fishing and my personal favorite Salmon lures based on my experience chasing river run salmon. There are a hand full of other salmon fishing lures I have been wanting to try but haven't for various reasons. As I continue to try more salmon fishing lures I may gain a new set of favorite salmon lures and maybe I have yet to find the best lures for salmon river fishing.

I have been wanting to do more educational fishing videos for a while now but always seem to be too busy and lately Ive been super excited for the 2021 salmon run in Michigan. It keeps creeping closer so I spent the summer stocking up on my favorite salmon and steelhead lures so I would be prepared for the salmon run. About 2 weeks ago I began filming and editing this video and between then and now 2 epic salmon related things happened to get me even more pumped! Jason booked us a last minute trip to go vertical jigging for king salmon then the day before the trip happened somebody caught the new state record Michigan King Salmon! The rumor had been that they are big this year and this event confirmed that. The very next day we got to go tango with some king salmon ourselves! So now I am beyond hyped about Michigan salmon fishing and I have great expectations for the 2021 Michigan salmon run! You know I will be out there using all my favorite salmon lures that I showed you in this fishing video.

Awesome video man and helpful information. Real quick question about the "Kwikfish" lures, what size do you recommend for smaller rivers like say the betsie river? Also, what is your favorite color/pattern of these? thanks!
@ReelMichiganAnglers
@ReelMichiganAnglers 3 года назад
The size of the gold one in this video is prefect imo. I’ve caught rainbow trout and coho on that lure in the grand river as well as creeks smaller then the betsie. Color orange and gold or silver with chartruse or pink.

Little Cleo use to or still do make a glow in the dark one and I’ve caught tons of salmon on them. In daylight and at nite. From piers or rivers as well. As a custom bait painter, I plan on bringing some of my favorite patterns to try in September. Any suggestions as to where to fish from a kayak at? I grew up fishing the Lake Huron side. Now I live in Indiana and the west side is much closer and I hear the salmon fishing is better on the Lake Michigan side

Hello, thanks for the info'! I"m on the westcoast. Do you think it's universal or perhaps different lures for different areas?
@ReelMichiganAnglers
@ReelMichiganAnglers Год назад
I would say all of that is pretty universal. The biggest difference being water clarity could change your color choice and water depth could change your size choice, but for the most part, the stuff should all be pretty universal for any salmon water.

@ReelMichiganAnglers
@ReelMichiganAnglers 3 года назад
I like my pfluger president reels and my shamino nasci. As long as the drag is smooth you are good. A slow retrieve typically is best so ratio isn’t that important. 20 lb braid up to 30 for kings. Rod long and somewhat moderate action so the rod fights the fish more than the reel. 8-11 feet heavy action isn’t necessary.

Which ones r legal for betsie river?
@ReelMichiganAnglers
@ReelMichiganAnglers 3 года назад
What I do is when I’m going to the Betsy or the plat I make up a special box of Lewers by removing the stock hooks and replacing them with hooks of legal size for those rivers. It’s kind of a pain but you don’t necessarily have to do it to all the Lewers. Measure the distance between the shank and the point of the hook and as long as it’s not bigger than the maximum size limit you’re good to go if it is replace it with a smaller hook.

@ReelMichiganAnglers
@ReelMichiganAnglers 3 года назад
@@Thody1987 I believe it is different from brand to brand and you may have to message the company to find out. I’m really bad at remembering those kinds of details also so I don’t always remember what kind of hooks I got that one time a year ago and tend to experiment a lot as opposed to having one particular thing that I like to use all of the time in terms of hooks. Last time what I did was remove all of the hooks from the Lewers that I brought and for mepps spinners do you have to cut the hook off and add a split ring. Otherwise just slip them all off and throw them in your box then go to Frankfurt tackle and walk in and ask them for some hooks of regulation size. At Frankfurt tackle they stock owners in the appropriate sizes for the Betsy and the Platte River and they seem to be pretty decent hooks. In the bed so you can use treble hooks but in all honesty I would just go with a single. Go with the biggest size single hook that you can use with both rivers. I’ve been using single hook Lewers for a little while now and I have not found that I miss fish because of the lack of two extra hooks hardly at all especially with big fish like salmon because when they strike the weight of the fish alone will watch that hook somewhere in its mouth. You will get a lot less snags that way as well.
