Hey guys, I wound up with an unplanned day off today, so I have a few minutes to post! 😎 That being said, the story is pretty much the same. Still a surprising amount of fish in the lower and mid river so it’s setting up nicely for an extended season, but some more water in the system sure would be awesome…

Just a reminder to my regular clients, I do have October 15, 16 & 18 – 22 blocked off, but if you contact me directly, I’d probably be game to go hunt Steelhead! (October 12, 13 & 14 are still open for either…) Everyone’s schedule starts to open up quite a bit mid-month actually so just give the shop a call if you’d like to grab a date or a motel room! (231) 745-3529 7am – 7pm daily.

Wednesday and Thursday was a three-boat group trip of fathers and sons! John R, Kam and I took Wes & Jeff, Matt & Jack and Derrick & Owen on a long boat ride with some great fishing on Wednesday and then a much shorter ride with even more fishing on Thursday by just launching where they are staying. (My boat felt like a sports model on the way out with nobody in it! 😎🤣)


Believe it or not, there were even more photos, these were just amongst my favorites from the two days where I took most of them in my role as “social media director”… 😎😉 (I think its safe to say that the group had a great time.)
As John mentioned in his report, the shop has been very busy this season! For that we have you to thank so, THANK YOU! Jake and the guys are doing the best they can to keep up with inventory demands, but please bear with us as we struggle to keep a few items in stock…
Salmon season is going to finish strong, and we are prepped and ready for a great fall Steelhead season as well. At the moment, a guide or guides are available for some great dates yet also, but those are starting to fill in. We use a variety of methods to pursue these great game fish and are happy to cater the trip to your preferred method if you have one…
One more reminder and I’m going to cut this short. We did have a few folks that had to back out on our January Argentina trip, so we have a few spots open! There are two different options available for this trip of a lifetime this winter, just click here to read more about it…Â Â
Be safe out there folks, have fun, and please, try to be nice to one another! Everyone’s goal is pretty much the same, enjoying your time out on a precious Michigan resource…
