Here’s Bert and Greg from northern Michigan with some excellent steelhead from the past couple days of trips.

This recent Polar Vortex cold spell that came through the midwest has helped the steelhead bite! New fish have come up and drop back steelhead are aggressively feeding as they make their way back to Lake Michigan.

Increased flows from recent rains has prolonged the steelhead run. We still have good numbers of steelhead around as we go into the tail end of the run leading into the end of May.
