Cool seasonal weather has returned and we were even blessed with some rain this week. It was not enough rain, but some is better than none. Rivers have bumped up a bit and with the cool nights in the forecast, water temps will start to slide. Increased flows and cooler temps should ramp up the bite this weekend. King Salmon are in full swing with reports rolling in of plenty of fish in nearly every river in the state.  Warm water bite has still been good and plenty have been getting out and capitalizing on these local options and ducking...

Starting to sound like a broken record but the fishing this week remains much the same as the previous couple of weeks. There are plenty of fish in the system, with lots of salmon being caught down town Grand Rapids, it sounds like they are stacked up below 6th street dam. Some fish have been pushing up and there are reports of fish in the Rogue as well. However, water levels remain tremendously low and we are in desperate need of rain locally and further north. The Pere Marquette is about as low as it gets, but there are fish...

This weeks rain has brought water levels up locally a touch so we are moving in the right direction.

Water levels to the north have ticked up a bit with this weeks rain, but much like the rivers down here, levels are dropping fast. So keep your...

Fall is on the horizon. Shorter days and crisp mornings have returned, at least for now. The cooler overnight temps have been great for trout fishing.  Shop staffer Drew got out for an early morning of Euro Nymphing and found a few nice players. Small nymphs and light tippet has been the ticket. But soon enough the egg buffet will be back open and the trout will be the first in line.  Reports have been rolling in of King Salmon in the lower river. Over the last week I have heard of a few fish caught downtown as well. The...

As we roll through the dog days of summer and maybe start to think about the season ahead, there is plenty of good fishing opportunities around the state.  Locally the bass fishing has been pretty good, despite the low water on the Grand River, Rogue River, and Flat River. Bite windows have been most consistent early in the morning and late in the evening on top water flies (zudbubblers, gurglers, mr wigglys, boogle bugs, etc). As the sun comes up, focusing on deep subsurface presentations have produced some consistent bites.  Despite the low water, nymphing has been productive for trout...
