Lake Michigan - Waukegan Harbor
AI-suggested draft · review before you go
Waukegan Harbor on Lake Michigan is one of the most productive and accessible fishing spots on Illinois' Lake Michigan shoreline, known for excellent coho salmon, chinook salmon, and lake trout fishing. The harbor breakwalls provide bank access for steelhead and brown trout in spring and fall, while charter boats operate from the marina targeting open-water salmon in summer. The pier and breakwall are popular year-round destinations for perch and alewife fishing.
