Current Report
Winter fishing is great
right now. The Muskegon and
Manistee Rivers are both
flowing at under 2000 cpfs
and have temps in the low to
mid 30's. Steelhead
in the Muskegon are hot with
our guides reporting 4 to 10
hookups daily. The
Manistee is not as hot but
steelhead are present and
catchable. Resident
trout are still active near
Tippy Dam. Hot flies last
week were eggs, especially
clown eggs and Oregon
cheese. Hawk's Caddis,
peacock buggers and small
black and brown stones all
took fish in the last few
days. Read more and learn
how to tie these two
patterns here

The fish are in full winter
mode, look for them in
slower pools and near cover.
Fish methodically and cover
the runs well. The fly has
to be on the nose to get a
take. Updated fishing
reports on these two rivers
