Is anyone catching salmon in Dexter?

Looking for a report for any recent fishing/catching activity for Dexter in the Black River. I plan on fishing from shore today with my wife, and we have never fished for salmon from shore. I'll be upstream from the bridge. Any tips or advise would be greatly appreciated.

i was up there duck hunting this past weekend and saw a lot of people fishing at the dam.  I did see a few people hooked up with fish and saw a bunch of people at the fish cleaning station cleaning their fish

Well, I fished there this afternoon for about 3 to 4 hours. Didn't catch anything, fished with natural colored rapala type lures. There were a handful of other fishermen and women and no one appeared to be catching anything. They are jumping quite a bit between the dam and the bridge, saw a bunch of good size salmon come completely out of the water, but they weren't interested in anything we put in the water.
