Steelhead fishing remains somewhat challenging at times with water levels raising and dropping from one day to the next. We have be getting fish on every trip, but the big numbers are just not there yet. The spring run is 7 to ten days behind the norm. Current water flows are at 5500 cfs and Visibility at 18 inches. Weather temps at 39 degrees at Croton Dam and can change by a degree or two down driver depending on the air temp on any given day. Crowds have been on the increase, so look for a busy river the remainder of the season croton dam,muskegon river, muskegon river guide, float fishing steelhead, muskegon river steelhead,
