Home Fishing Information January 2008 Update Our River Guides are all reporting good success on the Big Manistee.  As with all fishing, some days are better than others.  There are plenty of fish in the river and things will only improve as we approach spring.  Speaking of spring it is not too early to book your trip on Lake Michigan.  Several of our Captains will be attending shows around the state and prime dates go fast.  Please call one of our Captains or River Guides today!   Thursday September 13, 2007 The daily changing winds and weather are changing the fishery.  Currently there are still many adult Kings in the lake but are somewhat scattered due to the changing water temps.  Look for the harbor to be hot this weekend with more NW wind tomorrow,  The lower river is already producing good catches of Kings and now is the time to book that fall river charter with our member captains.    Saturday September 8, 2007 No one got out yesterday with 35 MPH winds from the South but today looks much better and the fishing should not have changed as the water temps remain very warm for this time of year.  NW wind later this week should cool the water and move the fish toward the harbor but the shelf should be great for the next few days.   Tuesday September 4, 2007 Fishing continues to be the best of the season with the only change being now that Labor Day has passed our member captains have more dates available including some prime weekends so give them a call for one of the best King Salmon fishing opportunities of the year.   Tuesday August 28, 2007 Fishing continues to be excellent with many limit catches reported throughout the area.  Depending on the day fish have been from 55-350 feet with the shallow water providing a great morning and evening bite and the deeper water producing during the day.  Very few fsih are in the river and the should continue to be very good for some time to come.   There is still time to book that charter with our experienced fleet.    Monday August 20, 2007 Fishing continues to be outstanding with limit catches coming from 20-300 feet of water.  The recent North winds have cooled the water and moved some fish into the harbor while the shelf and beyond is still holding a great number of fish.  Fishing for adult salmon should remain excellent through early September.   Thursday August 16, 2007 Fishing continues to be red hot with some of the best salmon action the port has seen.  Many boats are coming in with limits on a daily basis and the fishing should hold through early September.  There are still some open dates so call one of our experienced captains now!    More...
