Sfondo
I grew up in Jackson, Michigan which is in the southern part of the state. I grew up bass and pike fishing up ponds and lakes. I had limited fishing opportunities and I was always looking to get someone to take me out to fish. I couldn't ever get enough. After high school I ended up going to Central Michigan University in Mt. Pleasant to study Sports Management. While at school, I fell in love with fishing Smallmouth Bass in the Chippewa River that runs through Mt. Pleasant. During this time, I started coaching travel basketball. One of my athletes' fathers was a river captain. He invited me to come with him to fly fish late spring steelhead the Pere Marquette. I had never been in a drift boat or used a fly rod to this point… I fought numerous Steelhead that day, and landed a trophy brown trout. From that point on, my passion grew for learning and fishing Michigan rivers. I currently live in Alma, Michigan. I live with my wife (Aleisha) and my three dogs (Berkley, Caddis and Stella) and my two cats (Orvis & River). I also organize youth basketball tournaments, travel teams and officiate basketball in the winter.

Il mio stile di pesca preferito è con una canna da mosca in mano, ma mi piace altrettanto usare attrezzatura da spinning o una canna da baitcasting. Penso che la vera gioia per me sia semplicemente stare all'aria aperta e stare sul fiume.

Early Summer Heatwave
Early Summer Heatwave
Giu 21, 2024 Newaygo
The last 4 weeks have seen some up and downs. There were some extremely cold nights that lead to some extremely slow mornings, while bundled up in our winter gear. However, the extreme heat and lack of rain warmed the rivers up to mid-summer temps fast. The trout fishing on the Muskegon has been absolutely incredible and trout biting almost anything we tie to our lines. A few clients were fortunate enough to land some special Muskegon River fish. One a beautiful 20-inch brown trout landed on a flashy wollybugger while fly casting for his first time ever! The 30-inch Summer Skam while bass fishing was as an epic battle that I've ever seen and that won't soon be forgotten. While top water hasn't consistency been as productive for me this season, the Ned rig in the river is hard to beat. For a few weeks we were finding some fish in slow water and then maybe some in deep and some right off the bank. They were hard to nail down day to but trudging spots and moving while changing Ned colors paid off most days. But with the river temps rising fast, big deep bends is the ticket. Finding the right weight, for the depth and current is important. But working a deep bend can really pay off with multiple fish. I'm looking forward to more early summer Smallie fishing, while all 3 rivers I'm running right now are producing awesome numbers of Smallmouth and a lot of large fish. This is my favorite time of year, SUMMER SMALLMOUTH!
