A few chinooks and browns were caught on spoons in the Manitowoc harbor. Chinook fishing in the Manitowoc River is beginning to slow down. There are still a good number of chinooks in the river, but the peak was a couple of weeks ago, and the fish are dying off. There has been an increase in the number of brown trout recorded, and a few rainbows have been caught. So even though the salmon are on the downswing, trout are beginning to show up.
Spawn continues to be the best bait.
A fair amount of fish are in the East Twin River at Mishicot. Anglers are catching chinooks and a few cohos on spawn sacs by the dam and fire station. A few chinooks, cohos and browns are being caught on rapalas and spawn sacs in the West Twin River at the dam. Nice catches of browns and rainbow trout are being taken on spawn sacs or yarn flies. Early and late hours of the day have been the best times to fish.
