Glenn Spaulding, Captain at Summer Skool Sportfishing

Experience the best of Montague's Lake Michigan fishing charters with Summer Skool Sportfishing, led by the experienced Captain Glenn. From King Salmon to Walleye, the local species offer a thrilling catch for anglers of all levels on your salmon fishing Lake Michigan adventure.


Depending on your target species, you can enjoy light tackle fishing, trolling, jigging, or other specialized techniques unique to the area during your Lake Michigan fishing trip. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep after your salmon fishing excursion, and the crew can clean your catch, ensuring a fresh dinner from your Lake Michigan fishing charters outing.


Summer Skool Sportfishing welcomes families for Lake Michigan chinook salmon fishing, with children encouraged to join the adventure. Life vests are a must for children, so check for appropriate sizes available on board before your salmon fishing trip. Don't forget to pack snacks to keep everyone satisfied throughout the day on the water.


The Lake Michigan fishing experience takes place on a 26' Pontoon, accommodating up to 6 passengers. The boat is equipped with downriggers, a fighting chair, and all the essentials for your salmon fishing Lake Michigan excursion. It also features a toilet for convenience and is wheelchair accessible. Rods, reels, tackle, and lures are all provided for your Lake Michigan fishing charters trip.


A First Mate will be on hand to assist you in landing the big ones during your salmon fishing adventure. Mates work hard to make your Lake Michigan fishing trip memorable, so a 10–20% tip is customary. You may need to purchase a local fishing license for everyone in your group for Lake Michigan fishing, which can usually be done online or by consulting the captain. Certain species may be off-limits or require special tags during your salmon fishing expedition, so it's important to be informed.


Don't forget to bring sunglasses, a hat, non-spray sunblock, and bottled water for your Lake Michigan fishing charters outing. If you wish to bring other drinks for your salmon fishing trip, simply inquire. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but hard liquor and glass bottles should be avoided on the boat.


Treat yourself to a day on the water with Summer Skool Sportfishing and discover the unique salmon fishing and Lake Michigan fishing opportunities Montague has to offer.

Action Heating Up for King Salmon & Lake Trout

As we move into mid-May, Lake Michigan’s west side is showing great signs of life. Anglers traveling from Detroit are finding it well worth the drive, especially to ports like Muskegon, White Lake, and Ludington. King Salmon have started staging in 50 to 120 feet of water, hitting well on flasher-fly combos and meat rigs trolled around 2.3 mph. Early mornings and late afternoons are producing the most consistent bites. Lake Trout remain steady on the bottom in 60 to 100 feet, especially on rocky structure and deeper shelves. Spoons and spin-n-glows behind dodgers are the go-to setup. Coho Salmon and Steelhead are also showing up in mixed bags, particularly in 40–60 feet of water with orange and UV-colored spoons. Surface temps are slowly climbing, and the bite is expected to ramp up heading into June. Stay tuned for weekly updates as the summer bite continues to build. For anglers heading out from Detroit, now is a prime time to plan your Lake Michigan charter trip for peak spring action.

Captain Glenn Spaulding was able to put us on fish and provide us with with a great experience on the water. His Angler Quest pontoon is the most comfortable big lake fishing vessel I’ve been aboard and there is plenty of room. Glenn constantly works hard changing tactics to do his best as getting you hooked up with some of these big water fish. On our trip all 6 of us were able to land fish, one of which was a master angler Chinook salmon and a steelhead that was 1/4” shy of a master angler. I highly recommend rounding up some family or friends and booking a trip with Summer Skool Sportfishing, you won’t regret it.

August 8, 2025

If you're considering a fishing adventure, Captain Glenn should be your first choice! He's incredibly knowledgeable, especially when it comes to walleye fishing. Captain Glenn knew exactly where to bring us to hook up on fish, and we spent the day reeling them in one after another. His pontoon boat is extremely spacious too, so our group of four had plenty of space to enjoy the day without feeling crammed. Beyond the great fishing, Captain Glenn is such a pleasure to spend the day with. His easy-going nature keeps everyone relaxed and his sense of humor kept us all in good spirits. We can't wait to go out with him again. If you want a fishing trip that's as enjoyable as it is fruitful, Captain Glenn is your guy. I highly recommend him!

August 8, 2025

We checked the wind forecast that morning to ensure a perfect day on the water, and it paid off. We had a fantastic time, caught some good fish, and learned a lot from Captain Glenn!

August 8, 2025

We had a great time, although the fish were elusive and not biting. The crew was amazing, and despite my wife being six months pregnant, they made us feel very welcome.

August 8, 2025

What a fantastic trip! It was an amazing experience to reel in four salmon in a row.

August 8, 2025

Top notch all the way around! Captain Glenn has an outstanding and comfortable fishing platform, he is super knowledgeable in what he is doing. It is evident that he enjoys sharing his knowledge and passion for fishing with his customers. Highly recommended and we will be back!
