Lake Michigan Fishing Report - Updated Thursday, December 29, 2011 7:57:37 AM
2012 Lake Michigan Forecast- Due to a very large forage base in Lake Michigan, the Salmon were much larger in 2011 than recent seasons. Mature King Salmon ranged from 16-25 pounds, with some fish around West Michigan topping the scales at over 30 pounds! With the strong forage base in Lake Michigan, 2012 should be a phenomenal season for both size and quantities of fish. We will have the boat in the water by May 1 so give us a call today to book you prime date in 2012.

Muskegon River Fishing Report - Updated Thursday, December 29, 2011 7:44:35 AM
The Muskegon is full of Steelhead and with this mild weather fresh runs of steel just keep coming. The fishing as been great on most days, we have been putting up big numbers backbouncing spawn but float fishing with centerpin set-ups has also been deadly. With the mild temps, this could be some of the best winter fishing we have seen.

Grand River Fishing Report - Updated Thursday, December 29, 2011 7:39:22 AM
The Grand has been fishing great. Big numbers of steelhead coming to the boat everyday. Most fish coming on Floats and spawn but don't overlook backbouncing or drop back plugs.
