You’ll be fishing from his 18’ Stealthcraft Power Drifter Jet boat, perfect for accessing all the nooks and crannies of Manistee River.

Manistee River is teeming with wildlife, and it’s a great place to come and let your hair down, reeling in some prized freshwater fish. You can expect to target the likes of Steelhead, Chinook Salmon, as well as Brown Trout and Coho. From early May thru August is the best time to chase Smallmouth Bass and Northern Pike on the Fly.
Ken will have all the fishing equipment you’ll need ready for you when you come on board, including rods, reels, and tackle. Ken’s happy to clean and fillet your catch at the end of the day, so you’ll get a nice meal out of your trip!

We started at 8 (Kenny called the night before, giving recommendations based on other's experiences this week). It was our first time chartering and it was very nice to have everything taken care of! We both caught fish, he takes you through so many hot spots that there's a really good chance you'll catch something! Probably 12 rock and smallmouth bass total between the two of us in 4 hours.
My mom and i had never been steelhead fishing before. Captain Brad taught us everything we needed to know and we both caught steelhead! He was so patient, helpful and an all around great guide. Once we were done, he filleted our fish beautifully and even let us keep the rigs we fished with. We will definitely be booking with him again in the future.
My daughter and I fished the Manistee below Tippy Dam with Brad as our guide on September 1, Labor Day. What a great trip! Brad was wonderful. Put us in great locations and even cleaned our fish. Five stars! We will be back later this season for the salmon run with Brad!
Capt Brad worked hard all day to stay on fish despite the conditions. I would highly recommend fishing with him. Great to see someone open a new baitshop in town!
