Make sure you have a dependable GPS to find your way, the area can be a bit confusing if you're a total stranger to it.

The salmon are running by the thousands!! Also saw some huge brown trout caught. The whole experience was just awesome and fun! And if you love the outdoors, Michigan that time of year on the river is beautiful.

Sure, lots of charters there, so I presume fishing there is good at the right time.
I will book again for a 2nd time with the same captain.
