Winter Time Fishing

With Christmas out of the way it’s time to Relax and catch some fish. with the high waters we had in the fall. Pushed allot of fish in the Grand. Great winter time Steelheading going on right now. Try using Spawn, jigs and Waxy’s. Or if you like to fly fish. Run about a #10 green Caddis or a #8 Blk Stone. Or if you want to swing some flies, try a White Bunny Streamer.

Not allot of guys down at the River Right now but there are fish in there. What I like the most about winter time steelheading, your not shoulder to shoulder with everyone. You at least can have some room and be able to fish.

This picture is Jeff. He hooked this one Pinning on spawn down at the dam. Jeff likes to run 6 lb Berkley Vanish. He says for the price and how durable the line is you can’t beat it. Quarter Size Spawn bags “White”

Cravin Chrome in the WINTER!!!

steelies winter 003Took a few buddy’s out with me yesterday on the Grand River. The Fishing was Slow but we Landed 4 Steely’s. I was running Jigs and waxy’s And hit a few fish with nothin to come about. But Jeff was hitting a few fish on the Pin. With nickel to quater Size Spawn Sacs. White and Chart. was the ticket 2 on each color. We wasnt even fishing all the deep just about 3 1/2 foot. Fished at the dam at first with no takes and then dropped down in the boat and started to stick um. Talked to one guy that was throwing Gold and Black hot-n-tots and had one.

Updates will be about everyday now. Hunting is about over and the guided trips will slow down unitl goose and duck open back up.

But if your getting some cabin fever get out of the house because there are fish to be caught out there!!!

New York Trip

atlantictook a drive over to New York this last week for a few days. Went to The Oak and then fished Burt Dam. Caught allot of fish!! The Oak was just insane!!!! If you have fished the dam at 6 st. And think that was shoulder to shoulder you have no clue. Try fishing a river a little bigger than the rogue but people on both sides of the river. There was allot of fly fisherman there. Most trying to swing egg patterns with about 15 split shots on it. I will give the GRAND RIVER and the People that fish it day to day HIGH MARKS right now!!!! If you know how to fish the Grand River, you can go anywhere around the Great Lakes and out fish any BODY!!! And I’m not just saying that to be saying it. The Runs we have here in the grand are tuff to fish. And when you know how to fish those runs. Slow and slack watewater doesnt phase you a bit. In the Grand it’s all about reading the water. Hitting the seams. SPEED CONTROL AND DEPTH CONTROL. If you don’t have those to things while you fishing you are wasting your time. Anyone can fish. BUT NOT EVERYONE CAN FISH AND CATCH FISH!!!!!!!!!

The Trip took us around 12 hours becasue my buddy had a DUI that wanted to go with me. It should have only took us around 5 to 6 hours cutting across Canada. But we caught the FISH!!!! Caught allot of nice big and meaty Salmon and then when we went to Burt dam. the Browns where every where!!! I did catch my first Atlantic Salmon though. That had to be one of the hardest faught fish I have ever caught in my life.
