March Steelhead Trout

www.riverratdog.com 571 651 2616

Early March with the sunny blue bird days and clear water conditions. The Steelhead and Trout fishing is doing very well.

Fished 5 Days this last week and only 4 hours a day and have been Bring two to four Steelhead to the boat. Mixed it up a little on Thursday and did some Trout fishing on the Muskegon river. We found that the Brown trout and rainbow Trout were willing to take Midges.

I got a little over zealous on Saturday in the high sun and a floattella on the river. I have # guys that wanted to get some Walleye. Well there a a lot of Walleye in the river. Both rod on the second cast of the day, each fish on! We lost both those fish, and that was that for the day. Dang
Well back to Steelhead Monday oh Yeah.

We are turning the corner from winter fishing to Spring. I have seen Steelhead in the Shallow gravel and some cleaned redds. This last week of fishing was good put Steelhead in the net 3 out four days. No Steelhead Saturday although we did net a couple of limits of Trout. Then Sunday the Steelhead bite was back on, very nice day. The Grand river is still producing more Steelhead than The Muskegon or Manistee rivers. The Trout fishing on the Manistee and muskegon continues to be awesome.
Still have some good March, April and May Dates open

What a sweet week for Steelhead fishing The Grand river was on fire this week as i fished it while the muskegon river was clearing from the rain of last week. late in the week i returned to the muskegon river and Friday it was fishing very well. Saturday on the muskegon river was another story as the warm weather had many fishing the river the fish shut down , As many i talked to do not do well. Saturday my boat only had one Steelhead although we did boat many very nice Trout. I only talked to one boat on the river that did have a good day hitting nine steelhead and Had fished a different stretch of river than I. You just had to be at the right place at the right time. The rivers are clearing and we have some good weather this week Should be a good week I do have Thursday open this week.

The Grand River is fishing very well And I would like to be on the Grand right now.
