Due North Guide Service is located in Brethren and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.

Come on aboard with Capt. Brian, whose main priority is to get you on some fish. Expect to use techniques like light tackle, fly fishing, and drift fishing, based on the species you're targeting. Speaking of which, you have the option of 4 to 8-hour trips, where you'll be fishing for the likes of Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout, Lake Trout, and Salmon, depending on the specific season and the day's weather.

Your adventure begins on board a 17' Sea Ark boat that can fit a maximum of 3 anglers. The boat is fitted with an ice box.

All the necessary fishing gear is included in the price of your trip. All that's up to you is to use it as best you can. The price of your trip also includes complimentary snacks and lunch, but you're welcome to bring your own. Please let the captain know if you have any questions or special requests.

You can keep anything you catch, as long as it's legal to do so. Please make sure to buy a valid fishing license ahead of time.

Book your trip now and hit the water with Due North Guide Service.

Salmon trip in Manistee River
8 Hour Trip on October 4, 20252 adults1 child
Had a great trip with Mark and my 15 and 11 yo sons. We were busy catching fish our entire 8 hour trip. Mark put us on a great spot, he was very patient and a good teacher to my 11 year old son. Mark was pleasant and friendly the entire trip, one of our best trips we have been on.

Had a Blast!!
8 Hour Trip on October 7, 20232 adults
I had never booked a fishing trip and had never used FishingBooker so I really didn’t know what I was getting into to find a good guide. I decided to take a chance on Due North Guide Service, mainly because it was fairly priced and what reviews he had everyone seemed happy. I went for the salmon run 10-7-2023 with my dad, It was more than either of us had expected. We caught 3 fish by the mouth, which are the legal keepers, that we actually got in to the boat. Caught probably 5 that got off the hook after a good fight. And caught 5 more that were hooked in the tail. Let me tell you, when you hook them by the tail and they’re in that fast current, they are dang near impossible to get back to the boat. Lol but the guide was fun, if you like to joke around and have a good time while fishing, then Brian is your person to book with. I also thought it was cool that there were hundreds of fish swimming around all over in crystal clear water. He even kept untangling my dads pole every 5 minutes, because you use a really long lead and my dad kept getting it wrapped around the pole. Lol Book with Due North and you won’t be disappointed! See you next year buddy! *(the pictures don’t seem like the water is clear, but you can see all the way to the bottom)
