Happy birthday Joe and congrats on bringing so many nice steelhead to the boat!  What a great way to celebrate a birthday in style!  Congrats my friend!

The peak of the steelhead run is in full swing on the Muskegon River.  Steelhead can be found in pockets throughout the Muskegon River with fresh steelhead migrating up the river system and hungry drop-back steelhead making their way back to Lake Michigan.
