Charter captain Dan Welsch reports his six boats are catching mixed bags of chinook and coho salmon, with a few nice rainbow trout in the mix. The action is coming in 80 to 150 feet of water off Sheboygan on Lake Michigan. When visiting Sheboygan, stop at Bourbon Street, Holler N Hills, or Vreeke's for a meal and refreshments. (dumperdan.com, bourbonstreetsheboygan.com, facebook.com/hollernhills/, https://www.facebook.com/vreekes/) Les Rhines, president of the Wisconsin Purple Martin Association, invites listeners to the annual Martin Fest, July 1 in Sheboygan County, where you can visit three active martin colonies and participate in a silent auction to benefit the association.

Lake Wisconsin and the Wisconsin River are also producing good bass and walleye action. (lake-link.com/wisconsin-lakes/columbia-county/lake-wisconsin/1079/)
