Algoma & salmon fishing

Sorry, I can't download any pictures at the moment. The WIFI service here at the campground is being upgraded -- hope it gets better soon!

We went to Algoma the salmon fishing mecca here in Door County. It's on the Lake Michigan side of the county. Lots of big charter boats that take folks out for some fishing and the tackle they use is huge and very flashy.

Algoma also has a small lighthouse and is a very cute little town on the waters edge.

We were walleye fishing over by Chambers Island in the waters of Green Bay and I caught a 10 pound salmon. What a Shock! Jim caught one that had to be close to 30 pounds but it jumped about 5 feet out of the water and broke his 20lb test line. We never expected to catch salmon -- we were fishing in only 20 feet of water. We had been hearing they were catching salmon over on the Lake Michigan side in 120 feet of water. We're not sure why they were so shallow but it was a lot of fun.
Hope to be able to show pictures soon!
