Fishing Report: Big Manistee River – April 1, 2023

The river is currently at 2300 cfs and around 41 degrees. We received some much need rain and have warmer weather in the forecast. With more rain on the way the along with some strong west winds this weekend, we will see a good of push of steelhead from lake Michigan. We are currently catching a good mix of winter fish and fresh spring run steelhead too. I think the next few weeks could be the peak of our steelhead run.
I have some availability during the week days this month and would love to have you on the boat for the day.
I’m also starting to fill up for resident trout for may and June if your interested on getting your hands on a trophy brown trout.

God bless,
Chris
