Guided River Trips

  • January 17 2016

    Its mid January and things on the river are just about as you would expect. The cooler temps have finally arrived and are helping keep the pressure down. The fish are just now transitioning into their cold water winter lies. The fishing has been decent still, but it can be on the verge of challenging and frustrating at the same time. We have good numbers of fish in the system, but like we usually do the fish can be a bit moody. The key as of late has been to switch colors and presentations to find what gets em going. Float fishing and covering lots of water is very important. But by days end there are always a few steelhead that have seen the inside of the boat.

    Plenty of openings this time of year, please give us a call if your interested. Both full and 1/2 days are available.

    Spring dates are filling up as well.

    Merry Christmas!!

    Id like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas, and to thank you all for the many, many great years of letting me do what I love. Without your support my business would have withered away years ago. This spring I will begin my 25th year as a river guide / captain.

    Thank you,

    The fishing continues to be good to great!! We have great numbers of fish in the system and the river should fish well all winter long. Now is the time to get your spring dates on the calendar as well.

    Winter steelhead?..

    It is December on the calendar but the weather and the fishing have been more like mid November. For the most part we are still float fishing with beads and Raven float gear. Centerpin style of fishing is getting more popular, if you are interested in learning how to use your new centerpin gear give us a call,we also have Raven centerpin gear for you to use if you would like to try it.

    Holding water and preferred colors of baits have been changing daily, it pays to try different offerings until you unlock the hot baits. Water temps are still in the low 40’s which are great for this time of year.

    Gift certificates are available, if you are looking for that last minute gift idea.

    Now is the time to take advantage of the winter 1/2 day specials on the Muskegon river for only $200.
