August 2025--"Southern Lake Huron"

About this episode

Craig MacPhee discusses the evolution of the Lake Huron fishery and fishing techniques.

We're talking with an old friend of the Off Shore Tackle family this time on the podcast. Craig MacPhee is a Charter Captain and duck hunting guide on Saginaw Bay and southern Lake Huron with his Tail Annihilators guide service. He talks about the evolution of the Lake Huron fishery, the salmon fishing there and targeting big lake trout. McPhee also describes running offshore to fish the scum line, the role of pink and atlantic salmon in the fishery and why steelhead are so fun to catch. Craig then talks about how he uses Off Shore releases and boards...and how he got to know the DeShano Family.
