(Eric with a beautiful fall Muskegon River Brown Trout) Here’s Eric from Chicago with a beautiful Muskegon River brown trout sporting all its fall colors.

The annual migration of king salmon start to enter the river system and along with it fall steelhead and lake run browns follow suite up river in search of salmon roe discharged from actively spawning king salmon. Trout fishing… Continue Reading
(Muskegon River Brown Trout) More times than not hooking big trout with dry flies is won or lost by timing the rise. Trout don’t like to waste a lot of energy when feeding and with an over abundance of spent drakes floating down stream these browns position themselves in their specific feeding lane and just… Continue Reading

Couldn’t be happier to report one of the best caddis hatches I’ve witnessed in a long time on the Muskegon river in early September. Last night’s caddis hatch was… Continue Reading
