Michigan Fishing
Alex and I headed up north a couple weeks back for a pretty fun trip. This time of year up there has all kinds of fishing to keep you busy. The kings are EVERYWHERE and as a result, Browns and Steelhead are eating their eggs. We were there mainly for the browns but ended up […]
White River, Arkansas
The White was fresh on my mind for an early spring trip after see a picture of a 37″ (yes 37 inches) brown pulled out earlier this year on a double deceiver. On short notice, I called up Dally Ozark Fly fishers and they were able to hook me up; my Dad and I headed […]
Michigan Strip Trip
I recently got back from spending a couple days up in Grayling, Michigan. Grayling sits right on the Au Sable River, which is my favorite place in the whole world. It’s streamer time up there… rising water temps, stained flow and elevated water levels bring some of the biggest, baddest, browns in the midwest out […]

A Good End to 2015…
My dad and I floated the Mad River yesterday to do some strip and rip streamer fishing. Flows were up and clarity was down, overcast skies didn’t hurt us either. We had great time and put some solid fish in the boat. Not only did my dad get his first […]
‘Twas a Chrome Christmas
We got up to Glen Arbor in Northern Michigan (just north of Traverse City) for the holidays with my family. There are many small creeks and tribs off of Lake Michigan in this area, and you know what that means in late December…. STEEL! I’ve been fishing this area ever since […]
Michigan Trout Fishing
Last weekend my dad and I got up to do some trout fishing in Northern Michigan. We fished the Pere Marquette for two days and the Au Sable for two days. This time of year the east side and west side offer very different experiences; streamers vs. eggs. It was […]
