This guiding adventure was born out of some ideas with friends who are more like family. Who make my boat feel more like my dinner table, living room, and deck. The same place where I see my family grow and build character. I hope you see the fun we have and make the decision to do the same. I have a passion for spending time outside and being an active participant in the wild. Please join me to see what I see, and I guarantee a memorable experience. Fishing - All prices include; 16 foot Sylvan boat with a guide, bait, fishing equipment, and fish cleaning. Michigan DNR Inland Passenger Vessel Operator License #3139

Met an old friend in her same haunt. This is why catch and release is so wonderful on small water.

I’ve caught her for three years and she has grown about 8 inches in that time. She falls for the size 16 cinnamon flying ant this time of year. In the winter, small streamers. I’ve caught her 6 times, and now she’s between 18-19”.

What a great day, with a supporting cast that I hope to see again one day.

Something about a river. It is always changing. When the seasons change the river just keeps doing its thing. So do the fish that live there.

What started as a frustratingly slow day was saved by the good ole ditch pickle.

These guys were extremely patient with the panfish and the few perch who actually wanted to eat. Switching to drop shots was the ticket as the bass just would not quit.

This place is becoming one of my favorite places in Michigan. In some way it kicks my butt every time. This time the weather was perfect, crisp fall morning and sunny afternoons. The woodcock weren’t plentiful but flushed close. The fish though…they had my number. Learned something for next time.

When you see an olive/orange crawfish showing up regularly as fish food you match the hatch. Today a new pattern prototype found the biggest one of the day. It was ceremoniously removed for replication right after. Didn’t see the dry fly bite I was going for, but it was a great evening on the water. Lots of fish and beautiful weather.

While the luck didn’t necessarily follow these two from Vegas, there were fish caught. And a lifetime list fish hit the deck for one of them. If you are fishing lakes in the next day or two, enjoy the grind.

Absolutely excellent morning session. Lots of fish. Variety of fish. Some beautiful fish and some fish that might have topped any other I’ve caught in this spot this year. Need those water temps to drop a little, but I’ll take it.

Had about an hour and a half late morning. Dreary and even a little rainy for tossing the streamer today. A couple of solid fish hit but couldn’t stay buttoned up. Still nice to get a few and nice to be out in solitude.

Looking outside this morning it looked like perfect streamer weather. Despite a dry fly rig being on the 5wt weight already the small streamer game seemed like a good choice. Second cast upstream and it was confirmed as a good choice.

Lots of bluegills today. If I was keeping them, it was a limit under an hour. Good news for these bluegills, and the fishery in general, is they all live to swim another day. These fish are averaging 8.5 to 9” roughly, and a 10” gill is doable. Just have to keep letting them swim.

Found a few feisty, albeit a little undersized smallmouth, who tested my knots. The knots passed, but they sure tried.

Missed two opportunities on suckers. You don’t get many, so that was a hard pill to swallow.
