Current Report
Well, contrary to some, my
report won't be painting a
picture of incredibly high
fish counts, wonderful
landing rates or
speculation......it's simply
what I've seen on the river
over the last few weeks.
I don't feel that
the "spring run is on",
instead we do have some fish
getting "busy" around
gravel, but that's not
uncommon in a FEW instances
come late January. The
river is COLD, temps
yesterday were 33-34, hardly
spawning temps, let alone
good ones for fish
migration.......lake MI is
completely open, NO ice,
pretty warm for this time of
year and I believe most fish
are still at/near respective
pier heads or lakes that
such rivers feed into prior
to making it to open water.
Some trout fishing to be
had, actually had some midge
hatching with trout feeding
during recent sunny days,
which we haven't had many
of ! Saw small stones
working their way to shore
and the surface yesterday as
well.
That's it from "another
perspective", happy angling
and may your time on the
water be enjoyable.
