    Full day trip with Nick

    Guide was really not into the fishing. I fished that same run later that week with another guide and caught 10 times the fish. The technique was not like it should of been so the flies were not getting down to the bottom. I used other guides that week and have huge success with them. Was not really impressed with captain nick. Would not use him again

    Response from Captain

    Hey Thanks. I advised you several times that we do not snag fish nor fish to spawning fish including several opportunities to find someone else as well having a very blunt phone conversation about the subject. I’m glad you guys had success snagging half dead fish the rest of your trip. Check out Seasons on The Fly. They were doing the same as well. You’re welcome to come back and try when steelhead fishing actually occurs in the fall. Team Stealthcraft for the win on non fly fishing techniques and selling the lie again. I’ve been here before and will be here long after they are all gone. Good luck with your endeavors! “Guides” none of them are. Ask them what fishing is like outside of April and September, they won’t have a clue what you’re talking about, much like you don’t seem to have with what you are talking about. Shame on anyone that’s “fishing” Steelhead in April in Michigan, or in March even for that matter. When your “guide” tells you that you need more weight in fly fishing, maybe you should question why your even fly fishing.

Awesome Fall - Plenty of Chrome and Gold

Indicator with floating lines or Stripping and Swimming Streamers on sinking lines is where it’s at! There’s an excellent number of steelhead around this year and precipitation to keep them around! Come on up and take advantage before the end of the year…

Excellent Streamer Bite

While the rest are finishing up their snagging of steelhead off gravels, the streamer bite has been on fire! Swimming flies big or small have been working. Smallmouth on the move on the big river too.
