  • Lake Michigan off Door or Kewaunee counties

43rd annual K/D Salmon Tournament, July 11-20, 2025

One of the largest and deepest-paying tournaments in the country, the "K/D" allows anglers of all skill levels a chance to reel in trophy-size Chinook salmon, known as "kings," while fishing on private or charter boats in the Wisconsin waters of Lake Michigan off Door or Kewaunee counties. In 2024, a record 3,891 participants tried to catch their share of more than $100,000 in cash and prizes. More than 450 salmon larger than 20 pounds were weighed, including 14 over 30 pounds. The winning fish was 33.97 pounds, the 10th heaviest in the event’s 42-year history. The final payout went 164 places deep. More info: https://www.facebook.com/kdsalmon2025/, or 920.883.9792.
