Spring fly fishing is just around the corner! March, April and May are all great times to fly fish Northern Michigan. Steelhead fishing is the number one draw in the late winter and early spring on the lower Au Sable, Rifle and Betsie River. If you're looking for some early season trout fishing it is hard to beat the South Branch of the Au Sable and the Rifle River. Ice out on Lake Huron is coming soon! Late March & April can be great time for trophy brown trout, lake trout and smallmouth bass on the shoreline. May & June is also coming soon and that is the time to chase trout on the Big Waters of the Au Sable River.
For those looking for guided float trips we do have dates open for the 2008 but calendar is filling up and now is the time to get trips booked.
