New York Trip
Posted by: | Comments
took 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.

Steelhead are starting to Drop Back to the Big Lake
Posted by: | CommentsWent out a few times this last week and did catch some fish. But it’s starting to slow down now. there are some cromers still in the river but we are getting allot of spawned out fish. The river has been staying cold though. It was 48 degrees yesterday below the dam.
Cravin Crome Spring steelhead fishing still going strong
Posted by: | CommentsIt’s been a great season so far. even though we have been having some rain the water has still been about 2 to 3 feet visibability. Temp is about 45 degrees right now. But up close to the dam we have been hitting fishing on choker bags and then mixing um up with some smaller bags as well. Fishing are still going strong on wobble glows. And the shore anglers are hitting um with yarn and about 8 foot leaders. I went out yesterday and hit about 40 fish. Landed 12. I’ve been using 12 to 14 lb main line and 10 pound leader. and using a huge float with a 1 ounce sinker to get it in the hole quick. there’s been allot of light biters. Float isnt going all the way down so make sure your on um when they hit or you’ll be shit out of luck catching um. fulton street bridge has been taking a few fish as well as bridge street. I would say from today we have about 3 weeks of fishing left for steelies in the river. We are still getting allot of tight hens. And the males arent all beat up yet. So the spawn is still going strong. Dont be afraid to mover away from the dam either. there is some nice gravel down stream. Fish it, and you will be yelling FISH ON!!!
Winter Steelhead fishing on the Grand River
Posted by: | CommentsYa know this winter has been a rough year on the Grand so far. If we don’t have so much ice coming down the river. We have high winds that make it hard to feel a bite But the guys that are catching the fish are doing a few different things to land the fish. Bottom bouncing spawn has been catching allot of fish this year.
using a float with spawn on jigs and waxy’s have been doing good as well. But whats nice about a float is you can control where you want your bait to be at. A few guys are even using hot-n-tots with floats and nailing a few fish that way. Wobble glows are hitting a few fish to. with the muddy water they feel that vibe coming from it and smack it. The water has been cold at the dam. 34.6 has been a average. But it will warm up soon.
