Has Spring Sprung on the Muskegon River?

Fly Fishing Muskegon River

Officially Spring remains a few weeks away in Michigan, but our recent high water incident has definitely brought our first significant push of Spring Steelhead on the Muskegon River. With the large influx of water we faced over the last week, the Muskegon River has certainly not been easy fishing by any means right now. Give or take, visibility remains under 24 inches. This will slowly improve over time but honestly, it is about as dirty as it gets.

Patience remained key today while we were out and ultimately it gave way to a successful day fly fishing on the Muskegon River! Pictured here is Tyler admiring a very fine Spring Steelhead.
