The river was a little high, an while we caught fish it was not gang busters. We caught fish on top water but the best bite was deep. I guess the fish thought it was too hot as well.

We had a great evening! Getting outside and exploring is always better then being inside and comfortable. We determined this section should be fished more, and had a couple good laughs, that were mostly at my expense! Most of all we were outside enjoying this beautiful state we live in.

Get outside and explore,

I am happy to say that my skunk has been lift as the river rewarded my hard work with this beauty on my second cast! My new Mystic switch rod was amazing.

We ended up landing four nice steelhead, and a couple of trout!

It was an amazing day on the river with a great friend.

See you on the river!

What a better way to celebrate Black Friday then out chasing Chromers on the river?

PT dragged me out this morning and is definitely in his element swinging flies for winter steelhead.

It’s a little chilly but it beats the hell out of dealing with people on this crazy day…or just about anything else.

Tight lines,

Fall Steelhead fishing is in full swing. We hit the Pere Marquette river yesterday, and found low and clear water. We never connected with a fish, but we sure had a good time. It’s days like this that make you realize you don’t have to catch fish to have fun, but its more fun when you do.

Lots of dead King Salmon dead after spawning. They give the river this great rotting flesh scent.

Tight lines,
