Capt. Lucas runs trips out of Traverse City aboard a SmithFly Big Shoals raft. These waters are known for Trout and Steelhead and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're spinning or fly fishing. With extensive knowledge of the area, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!

    First time fly fishing!

    Half Day Trip • 1 adult

    I've always wanted to try fly fishing, but never had the opportunity. Luke gave me the basics and some practice. Within 20 minutes I caught my first brown trout. Winding down the river with just oars and the river flow, it was very relaxing. Thank you Luke for an amazing trip!
