Pere Marquette River Steelhead

Float fishing for Steelhead was outstanding on the Pere Marquette River today.  We had a bit of a slow start with chilly air temps cooling the water off to just over 32 degrees over night but once the sun started to warm things up the fish went on the bite in a big way.  We found good numbers of slightly colored bucks and bright hens today along with a fair number of darker fish as well.  The Muskegon River and Pere Marquette River have both been fishing well for us so give me a call if you want to get in on the action.  Ed is pictured below with just a few of the piles of Steelhead he landed today.
