Nice spring we have had with some very high water and ups and downs we got through a very nice April.  The best thing is there is still a lot of fish around --steelhead wise usually things are ending around the midle of May this year they will go into June.  The tailwaters Big Manistee, Muskegan are just starting to heat up with there peak run.  We had fun on the White River, Pere Marquette, Bear Creek, Little Manistee, Now the Baldwin and all of the P.M.'s tribuatries are open.  The different options are what we love here in the heart of the century circle.  We have some good steelhead, trout dates open this month and I am anticipating some Hendrickson's to start coming on the warm days ahead along with our ever friend the Pteronarcys (Giant StoneFly) will start to hatch soon getting the trout off of eating steelhead eggs and on to hitting on the surface after dark, I can't wait. 


See ya on the creek,
Captain Mike
