Love These Guys!

Husband and wife Jim and Mary are long time friends and customers, and every time we get together, whether on the river or not, we have a terrific time. Fresh off fishing Clousers on the Kalamazoo River with great success yesterday, Jim and Mary were eager to feed their fly fishing addiction by raising some smallmouth bass to their poppers today on the Muskegon River. And, apparently, so were the bass, because literally within minutes of my setting the boat up on our first likely spot of the day, Mary laid into the hefty smallie she poses here. Wasn’t a few minutes later, Jim boated the bass he holds.  Steady action on poppers continued until after lunch when a combination of blustery winds and tubers conspired to end the top water bite.

No matter, great times were had by all, including the guide, who already is looking forward to what he hopes will be another fun-filled day on the river with Jim and Mary.
