  #

Salmon fishing was phenomenal in St. Joseph, Michigan.  I have been fishing for 31 years in Michigan and this is one of the best fishing trips ever.  We boated 26 fish, Coho, Kings, Steelhead and lake Trout!  We had about 40 fish hit just about everything on downriggers, planners and dispsy divers.  more

Catching Detroit River Walleye the Old Fashioned Way

  #
Dan Armitage - Buckeye Sportsman“When the water’s muddy and moving, handlining is hands-down the most productive method for catching walleye,” claims veteran tournament angler and handline advocate Gary (“Bo”) Bowman of Howell, Michigan. “In the Detroit River in the spring, you’ll see more boats sprouting handline reels than traditional fishing rods two to one,” he said, adding: “and you’ll see the method used to catch walleyes in rivers all over the Midwest, including some of the major tournaments like the PWT, MWC and FLW. The walleye pro’s who know how to rig their boats and use handlines use them on the tournament circuit every chance they get.”  more...

A spring float on the Pere Marquette

  #
This is a great time of year to get out on Michigan rivers. The foliage isn't thick yet, and you can see the landmarks along the river banks. I love old houses or cabins on streamsides, like this one on the Pere Marquette River near Baldwin.

The old houses speak of a different era when white pine was cheap, and it wasn't expensive to add a couple of extra rooms to a house, especially a screened in porch for use on summer evenings.  more...

Trout season opens in Michigan

  #
For once the weather cooperated this past weekend for the opening of trout season, and we were catching fish on dry flies instead of watching flecks of snow in 35 degree gray skies.
I just hope it was a good omen for the coming tourist season in Michigan. If gas prices stay pretty much where they're at, and the weather cooperates, it’s a good time to start planning weekend trips. more...
